Tampa Bay Rays first baseman C.J. Cron continued his breakout season Wednesday versus the Yankees. He hit a solo HR that would eventually be the winning run in the 3-2 victory. Cron has a career high 20 HR already this season to go with 51 RBI. He is currently batting .257, which has been up and down during the season. Also worth noting is that he accumulated most of his 2017 stats and fantasy value in the second half of last season. He is not a shallow league standout, but he definitely has value in deeper leagues.--Jamie Mellor

The Boston Red Sox have signed veteran first baseman C.J. Cron to a minor-league contract, and he's expected to compete for a roster spot. Cron is a former All-Star (2022) known more for his power, hitting 28 and 29 home runs in his last two full seasons in Colorado. Last season, Cron missed time due to a back injury and was traded mid-season to the Los Angeles Angels. In all, he played 71 games and finished with a .248-12-37-38-0 line in 258 at-bats in 2023. He'll presumably back up Triston Casas if he were to win the job, which likely makes Bobby Dalbec the odd man out, with Dalbec starting the season back in Triple-A where he mashed 33 home runs last season and stole 18 bases.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller

The Los Angeles Angels activated first baseman C.J. Cron from the injured list on Saturday after missing about a month with a back ailment. The veteran 33-year-old has split time between the Angels and the Colorado Rockies this season, slashing .252/.299/.441 with 12 bombs, 38 runs, and 37 RBI across 70 contests. Cron isn't starting on Saturday against the Tigers, but fantasy managers should expect him in the lineup at first base or designated hitter most days for the rest of the year while providing power and RBI.--Spencer Seguin

Los Angeles Angels manager Phil Nevin said "it will be a little bit of time" before first baseman C.J. Cron (back) can return to the team. Cron said on Monday that he has yet to start swinging a bat, but he's hoping that he can still return before the end of the season. He also dealt with back issues earlier this year before being acquired in a trade with the Colorado Rockies at the deadline in early August. The 33-year-old tried to play through lower-back inflammation before he was put on the 10-day injured list on Aug. 18 (retroactive to Aug. 16). With very little time left this year, fantasy managers shouldn't expect Cron to make it back. The Angels called up rookie Nolan Schanuel, a first-round pick this year, to help fill in at first base with Cron sidelined.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Angels first baseman C.J. Cron (back) remains sore and has not resumed baseball activities. Fantasy managers should not expect Cron to come off the 10-day injured when he's eligible after landing on the IL on Aug. 18 due to lower-back inflammation. The Angels called up this year's first-rounder, Nolan Schanuel, to help replace Cron, but he's missed the last two games with food poisoning. Even when Cron is able to return, he'll likely be a part-time player for the Angels as long as Schanuel continues to play well. The 33-year-old veteran slugger has also gone just 10-for-46 (.217) with a homer, five RBI, 14 strikeouts and seven runs scored in 14 games (12 starts) since being acquired in a trade from the Colorado Rockies just before the deadline.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
