Carl Crawford can become a free agent after this season and the low-budget Rays may have a replacement in Desmond Jennings, 23. Crawford, an affable guy who would seem to thrive just as easily in a major market, understands the speculation. ?It comes with the territory,? he said. ?You?ve got to answer the questions, and I?m fine with that.? Crawford said all the right things, insisting he was focused only on this season and on helping the Rays win. He sounded a bit like C.C. Sabathia in the spring of his free agent year, 2008, when he answered questions about a possible career move. Sabathia and Crawford are friendly, but Crawford said Sabathia had not started recruiting him. ?We don?t really talk about that stuff much,? Crawford said. ?We just have fun and relax when we do hang out.?
