Sitting out against Sale Cronenworth is not in the lineup for Friday's tilt in Atlanta.

Impact Cronenworth is an everyday player but will occasionally sit against tougher lefties and Chris Sale -- who starts for Atlanta on Friday -- qualifies. Jose Iglesias will cover second base and bat seventh for the Padres.

Reaches three times in return Cronenworth went 1-for-3 with two walks, two runs and an RBI against Colorado in a 13-9 victory Friday.

Impact Cronenworth was activated from the injured list Friday and immediately returned to the lineup at second base. He made an impact in his first game back, getting on base three times, with his lone hit -- a single -- plating a run in the the eighth inning. Per Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union Tribune, the fractured rib that landed Cronenworth on the IL hasn't yet completely healed, and he's wearing an undershirt with padding to protect the area, but he should be able to play on a near-everyday basis moving forward.

Impact Cronenworth has been on the shelf since April 11 due to a non-displaced right rib fracture, but he recently received clearance for full baseball activity and took live batting practice at extended spring training Thursday. He'll likely remain in Arizona for at least a few more days to continue ramping up and could head out on a brief rehab assignment early on during the upcoming week, but if all goes smoothly in his recovery, Cronenworth may be ready to return to the San Diego lineup by next weekend. Once activated, Cronenworth should supplant Jose Iglesias as the Padres' primary second baseman.
