Red Sox's Kutter Crawford: Activated off injured list

Crawford (hamstring) was activated off the 15-day injured list by the Red Sox on Friday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Crawford ended up missing the minimum 15 days while recovering from a mild left hamstring strain. Ryan Sherriff was optioned back to Triple-A Worcester as the corresponding transaction. Crawford should be a multi-inning option now that he's back in the major-league bullpen.
