Crawford Undergoes Wrist Surgery

Red Sox LF Carl Crawford has undergone arthroscopic surgery on his left wrist and is in doubt for Opening Day.  GM Ben Cherington believes that Crawford will be available for the bulk of the season, however.  The discovery of the injury appears dubious.

The procedure was performed by Dr. Donald Sheridan in Arizona.  Crawford had a sub-par season for Boston last year, and injury news is the last thing that both he and Red Sox Nation wanted to hear.  OF Darnell McDonald and IF Mike Aviles are expected to fill in for the injured Crawford in left field.
