3 years agoColorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Braves, according to MLB.com. Cron is hitless in his last eight at-bats and will get a chance to rest. He's having a great season with the bat, slashing .269/.367/.525 with 27 HRs, 82 RBI, and 60 runs. Fellow infielder Rio Ruiz will play first and bat seventh. Across 53 games this season, he's batting just .179 with three home runs and two stolen bases. Fantasy managers should stay away from Ruiz as there are better first base options on the wire.--Spencer Seguin - RotoBaller
