4 years agoColorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron, who's been on the injured list with a lower back strain, should be activated on Tuesday according to manager Bud Black. Cron has been on the IL since May 7 so if he's activated on Tuesday he'll have been out one day above the minimum stay. The veteran first baseman is slashing .290/.394/.495 with five home runs and 15 RBI over 93 at-bats this season and should resume everyday play once he returns. Conner Joe has filled in well with a .948 OPS over the last 10 games but he'll likely shift to the outfield or get sent back down to the minors.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
