    Red Sox outfielder Carl Crawford recently returned to Boston to have his left elbow examined by team doctors, who diagnosed him with a minor strain.Crawford, who is currently on the disabled list while he continues to rehab from wrist surgery in January, said he suffered the recent elbow strain while throwing and acknowledged there's discomfort after the "motion at the end when I flick it."As far as the wrist, he said he's feeling good."I'm just waiting to get back on the field," said Crawford, who addressed reporters in the Red Sox clubhouse before Friday's home opener. "I had to come up here to get my elbow checked and I think it was best to be here with the doctors for the next few days. I'm not sure when I'm going back to Fort Myers, but I should be heading back pretty soon."
