New Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine stated today that Carl Crawford may miss "a few weeks" at the start of the season. Since the commonly accepted English meaning of "a few" is "three", this is a huge blow to the team's chances to get off to a fast start. Three weeks is effectively over 12% of the season. Once again, we have to ask why the crack Red Sox Medical Staff didn't address Crawford's wrist issue right after the season ended—instead of waiting to the point of it impacting the start of the season. Calling Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine, Dr. Howard. Disgraceful.
