Sep 28, 2024; Boston, Massachusetts, USA; Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Kutter Crawford (50) walks of the field after being taken out of the game in the fifth inning against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park. Mandatory Credit: Brian Fluharty-Imagn Images The Red Sox have pressed pause on the rehabilitation efforts of right-handed pitcher Kutter Crawford over concerns about a worsening wrist injury, Boston manager Alex Cora told reporters Saturday.
Crawford hasn’t pitched in a game this season as he’s dealt with discomfort in the patellar tendon in his right knee, a situation that has plagued him since early last season, as well as an ongoing wrist injury.
He threw two bullpen sessions this week in the hopes of moving on to a rehab assignment but will instead fly to Boston for further testing.
“He started playing catch, he didn’t feel great about it, so we’re going to shut him down,” Cora said. “We’re going to fly him up to Boston to see where we’re at. With the wrist, he wasn’t able to generate velocity, so that’s a concern and a concern for him, too. If he’s trying to do something, then the shoulder comes into play.”
Crawford, 28, hit the ground running to begin the 2024 season with a 1-0 record and 0.66 ERA over his first five starts. He injured his knee while covering first base in a game against the Baltimore Orioles on April 10 of last season.
Crawford finished the season with a 9-16 record and a 4.36 ERA while leading the league in starts (33), and the Red Sox in innings pitched (183 2/3) and strikeouts (175) but the knee issues bothered him ahead of the 2025 season and wrist issues soon followed.
“He’ll be in Boston in the upcoming days and we’ll know more next week,” Cora said Saturday.

NBA offseason, free agency live updates: Kevin Durant traded to Rockets, news, analysis and reaction
Since the season ended, Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia has promised an organizational makeover, one built around toughness and grit. This is the start. At the 2023 trade deadline, Phoenix had acquired Kevin Durant for a package that included Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson and four unprotected future first-round picks. While the Suns didn’t come close to matching what they gave up to acquire Durant, this might have been the best they could do under the circumstances.Jalen Green is a high-scoring guard who has improved over his four NBA years. He’s explosive, athletic and dependable. He’s played all 82 games the past two seasons, and this season averaged a team-best 21 points while shooting a career-best 35.4 percent on 8.1 attempts per game. Last October, Green signed a three-year rookie extension worth $106 million.The obvious issue: The trade gives Phoenix an […]

Kevin Durant trade shows just how far Rockets have risen, Suns have fallen
In the spirit of Sam Presti turning the Rashard Lewis trade exception into Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Jalen Williams, let's zoom out. This past Thursday was the four-year anniversary of Kevin Durant's toe-on-the-line 2 at Barclays Center. That shot, in Game 7 of the Brooklyn Nets' second-round series against the Milwaukee Bucks, is the best -- or at least most literal -- example of the razor-thin margin between winning and losing in recent NBA history.Durant, then 32 years old, was widely considered the best player on the planet. He scored 48 points in 53 minutes in that game, four days after a 49-point, 17-rebound, 10-assist masterpiece.At the time, the Phoenix Suns were in the middle of an NBA Finals run, led by Chris Paul and Devin Booker and a strong, young supporting cast. The Houston Rockets, having traded James Harden to the […]
