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 -- by his
teammates, by management and by Red Sox fans, ESPNBoston.com's Gordon Edes
reported Saturday.

Cherington said Saturday night of Crawford wanting to have surgery, "He knows
if he ever feels that way, there is an open door to come in. The last thing
we would ask him to do is anything he's not comfortable with. It's up to him."

In an email to the Boston Herald on Saturday night, Crawford's agent said the
left fielder would follow the advice of the Red Sox medical staff.

"Carl intends to follow the course recommended by the medical professionals
who have been treating him, in whom he has full confidence," agent Brian
Peters said. "Whether and when he has surgery will be determined by them. The
Red Sox have been and remain 100 percent supportive of Carl throughout the
process."

Crawford underwent wrist surgery in January, causing him to open the season
on the disabled list. While rehabbing at the team's training facility in Fort
Myers, Fla., he subsequently hurt his elbow, an injury the team announced on
April 27 as a sprained ulnar collateral ligament. He missed the team's first
89 games before returning on July 17, but days before his activation, he
acknowledged he had thoughts about having Tommy John surgery.

Crawford has maintained that Dr. James Andrews, the orthopedist who examined
him in April, told him that he ultimately would require Tommy John surgery, a
position repeatedly challenged publicly by both Cherington and Valentine, who
have said that surgery was not necessarily required.
