Cron started at first base and went 1-for-3 with a walk and a double in Monday's win over the White Sox.

The slugging first baseman was expected to land on the short side of a platoon at first base upon his return from the disabled list, but an injury to Yunel Escobar has opened up regular playing time for the 27-year-old. Cron hasn't done much in his limited playing time this season (.224/.274/.269), but with 32 combined home runs over the past two seasons, he is worth adding in deep leagues for power while he is seeing regular at-bats.
