The athleticism bursting from the body of Carl Crawford might form a black hole and swallow all the unathletic, overly paid baseball players up in it. Coming out of high school in Houston, Crawford had tons of choices, including a scholarship to be an option quarterback at the University of Nebraska and an offer to be a point guard on the basketball team at UCLA. He opted instead to play baseball and was the 52nd overall pick in the 1999 MLB amateur draft by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. If you’re looking for a Carl Crawford jersey, tshirt or memorabilia, check out our wide selection at FansEdge.com. We have all sorts of Boston Red Sox custom jerseys and merchandise to match your fancy.
Crawford’s decision to play baseball was validated after taking only three years to navigate the minor leagues and reach the Majors by the age of 20. Eight years in Tampa led to four All Star selections and a Gold Glove and Silver Slugger award during his best season in 2010. He’s won an All Star Game MVP award in 2009, led the AL in stolen bases four times and took the Rays, a perennial loser, to the World Series. He also owns a MLB record for stealing six bases during one game. As a new member of the Boston Red Sox, he is an integral part of the future for the franchise.
