I see Crawford is out. That doesn't hurt my feelings tonight but I hope he is ok. MLB.com says he isn't likely to play tomorrow either:

Manager Joe Maddon said Ron Porterfield, the Rays' head athletic trainer, told him that Crawford's injury is nothing severe.

"I can understand from Carl's perspective never having had [a back problem] before, it's kind of concerning," Maddon said. "But at this point, medically, we feel OK about it."
