Candelario and Rivera voted into Fall Stars Game

Infielders Jeimer Candelario of the Cubs and the Brewers' Yadiel Rivera earned inclusion in Saturday's Fall Stars Game in fans' Final Two Vote for the Arizona Fall League's showcase midseason event.

Candelario, of the Mesa Solar Sox, carried 27.8 percent of the votes to land the final berth on the East Division squad, while the Surprise Saguaros' Rivera led West Division candidates with 19.1 percent -- a mere 2.1 percent ahead of Jacob Scavuzzo of Glendale and the Dodgers.

A couple of other additions to the West roster were also announced on Wednesday, as replacements for original selections now ruled out.

In a switch of first basemen, Phillies No. 16 prospect Andrew Knapp replaces A.J. Reed, and Reds No. 11 prospect Phillip Ervin takes Michael Reed's spot.

This first-ever Fall Stars Final 2 Fan Vote, presented by Bowman Baseball Cards, left it up to fans to choose the 26th men for each Fall-Star team.

Candelario, a 21-year-old switch-hitting New York City native and the Cubs No. 20 prospect, is batting .341 with 11 RBIs in 11 games as Mesa's third baseman, and nine of his 15 hits have been for extra bases, six doubles and three homers.
