C.J. Cron is Sitting Out the First Game on Saturday
5 years agoMinnesota Twins first baseman C.J. Cron (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's first game of the doubleheader against the Cleveland Indians. It appears to be a routine off day, so he'll likely be in the lineup for the second game. Willians Astudillo will cover first base and bat ninth versus righty Mike Clevinger. Astudillo is a reliable hitter, but doesn't offer much upside at the bottom of the batting order against a strong pitcher like Clevinger.
