C.J. Cron on Colorado's bench Thursday afternoon

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron is not in the starting lineup for Thursday afternoon's series finale against right-hander Mike Foltynewicz and the Texas Rangers.

What It Means:

Cron has cooled off at the plate following a strong start and is hitting .148 with 10 strikeouts over his last 10 games. Matt Adams will make the start on first base for Colorado on Thursday and hit fifth.

numberFire’s models project Adams for 11.0 FanDuel points and he has a $2,500 salary on Thursday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Rockies have the highest implied total in the majors (5.5 runs) and the over/under in the Rockies-Rangers game is a run higher than any other total on the slate.
