Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (back) said that he won't be in the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Washington Nationals and probably won't be in there on Wednesday, either.

Byron Buxton Placed On Paternity List

The Minnesota Twins officially placed outfielder Byron Buxton on the paternity list on Monday and recalled outfielder Trevor Larnach from the minors in a corresponding move.
