Boston Red Sox outfielder Carl Crawford is expected to undergo Tommy John
surgery Tuesday to repair the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his left
elbow, a source told ESPN on Sunday night.
Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine said earlier Sunday the team planned to meet
with Crawford and members of the Red Sox's medical staff on Monday to make a
decision on if and when Crawford would have the surgery.
Valentine said he spoke with general manager Ben Cherington earlier in the
day about Crawford's status. Crawford played left field and batted second in
Sunday night's series finale against the Yankees.
According to two people with close ties to Crawford, the left fielder was
reluctant to tell the Red Sox he would like to shut down playing and have the
surgery because he was afraid of how that would be perceived
