Player Notes
February 25, 2010
Carl Crawford and the Rays have tabled contract extension negotiations, according to the St. Petersburg Times.

Our View:For the entire season, that is. Not very good news for those hoping the star outfielder will be in Tampa Bay beyond 2010.

Carl Crawford's future with the Rays is uncertain, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:Crawford can become a free agent after the 2010 campaign, and wants to win and be paid higher than the $10MM he is slated to earn this season. Crawford would likely have no problem getting his wish, as he an elite five-tool outfielder.

There's a strong probability that Carl Crawford could be traded sometime before next summer's trade deadline, according to the Boston Globe.

Our View:The Rays are in apparent financial dire straights, and seeing that Crawford will be a free agent after this season, they would likely have little chance of re-signing him. Quite a shame since Crawford is likely the best player in franchise history. Hopefully things change for the better sometime soon in Tampa, but it is looking bleak.
