REPORT: Crawford Might Be Out Three Months
Couldn't you see this one coming? According to the Globe's Nick Cafardo, Carl Crawford's elbow injury (not the original wrist injury, mind you) could keep the center fielder out for three months. This is a devastating blow to the team, as they have been piecing together an outfield missing two of its critical pieces in Crawford and Ellsbury. Now, they have to realistically pursue another body (other than Marlon Byrd) to insure they stay competitive until their real players get back. This is yet more evidence of the woefully inadequate medical and conditioning operation on Yawkey Way. Do these guys do anything right? Oh yeah, soccer.
