Jeimer Candelario

I don't know why I've never noticed it before, but the official MLB page for some players lists their nicknames. This week's MLBoyfriend, Jeimer Candelario, has a fabulous one, Candy. If I hadn't already chosen Candelario this week, that would have put him over the top.

Candelario had a great week at the plate with 16 hits in 28 at-bats for an incredible .586 batting average. He had 4 doubles, 1 triple and 2 home runs giving him an impressive 1.000 slugging percentage. He scored 4 runs and batted in 5.

Of course, it doesn't hurt that Candelario looked liked this while doing all that.

Congratulations, Candy! You are my MLBoyfriend of the week.
