The Chicago Cubs didn’t bring in infielder Jeimer Candelario to jump-start the offense. The Cubs, who began a six-game trip Monday against the New York Mets at Citi Field, already had the best run-producing offense since the All-Star break when they acquired Candelario last week from the Washington Nationals. His addition has made the lineup deeper with a tough, switch-hitting out. Candelario has been able to play without the expectation of needing to help get the Cubs offense on track. “It’s definitely taken (away) any pressure of he’s got to be the savior of the offense coming in and where he’s fit in the lineup,” manager David Ross said Monday.
