After being called up as the 26th man for Tuesday's doubleheader, Candelario is expected to remain on the MLB roster, Jesse Rogers of ESPN Chicago reports.
With pitcher Dylan Floro getting optioned to Triple-A on Tuesday, Candelario will stick around for more than just a day. The Cubs' No. 4 prospect, Candelario was slashing .340/.443/.649 at Triple-A, so his bat appears to be MLB-ready. He'll provide depth behind Kris Bryant for the time being.
