Candelario has replaced Vladimir Guerrero on the Dominican Republic's roster for the World Baseball Classic.

Candelario will join the Dominican Republic team after Guerrero had to withdraw from the roster due to knee trouble. The 29-year-old joined the Nationals after a disappointing 2022 season with the Tigers that saw him register a .633 OPS, 13 homers and a 129:28 K:BB over 467 plate appearances. He'll likely be a bench bat for the loaded DR lineup during the tournament.
