MESA, Ariz. \u2014 Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong was set to be back in the lineup Tuesday against the Padres, after being scratched the day before with a tight right hamstring.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was a collaboration to get me to make a mature decision on where we\u2019re at in the year, not pushing anything,\u201d Crow-Armstrong said Tuesday morning. \u201cAnd it was completely precautionary and nothing too noteworthy.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said he felt the tightness Wednesday morning at the Cubs\u2019 spring training complex, and the athletic training staff noticed him stretching more than usual.<\/p>\n

\u201cA little colder [Monday], so naturally I was a little tighter than usual,\u201d Crow-Armstrong said. \u201cBut I operate off of natural tightness anyways, and I just thought it was something to be aware of. And my trainers did too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Crow-Armstrong spoke with trainers as well as manager Craig Counsell before they decided to sit the center fielder for the game. Although Crow-Armstrong said he was disappointed to miss a day of competition and the chance to face Diamondbacks star Corbin Burnes, he conceded that the cautious approach was the \u201csmart decision.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the season, I think this is something that we play through,\u201d Crow-Armstrong said. \u201cBut I think what Counse got me to see yesterday was the goal is to still create a transparent dialog with the training staff.\u201d<\/p>\n
