HCLP--Hi-Crush, frac sand plays slide after Cramer says investors should avoid

Hi-Crush Partners (HCLP -5.8%) is sharply lower, apparently due to a negative mention last night from Jim Cramer, who urged investors to avoid the stock as well as U.S. Silica (SLCA -2.3%) after big gains YTD.
"At the end of the day, this stuff is just sand and sand is plentiful," Cramer says, adding that oil drillers could switch to another substance in place of sand for fracking if the sand ever gets too expensive.
The only frac sand play Cramer likes - and only if one must own a stock in the space - is Emerge Energy Services (EMES -5.8%).
