Kutter Crawford Placed On 15-Day IL
2 years agoBoston Red Sox relief pitcher Kutter Crawford (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Friday, retroactive to May 4. The 27-year-old exited Wednesday's meeting against the Toronto Blue Jays because of hamstring tightness after going just 1 1/3 innings. Skipper Alex Cora was optimistic the righty wouldn't require a stint on the IL. However, that's not the case. Kutter has earned a few starts in 2023, amassing a 1-1 record. He also has a 3.51 ERA in seven appearances with 24 strikeouts and three walks. Fortunately, the injury is described as "mild," although the team will surely play it safe. In a corresponding move, Kaleb Ort was recalled from Triple-A.
