Trevor Crowe left Saturday's game in the second inning with a left shoulder strain.

The good news is that it's not the same shoulder that he had surgically-repaired back in March. We'll update his status when more is known.

Indians activated OF Trevor Crowe from the 60-day disabled list.

Crowe underwent shoulder surgery in March and hasn't played in the major leagues this season. The 27-year-old batted .263 (10-for-38) with two homers, three doubles and a triple over 11 minor league rehab games between the AZL Indians and Triple-A Columbus. He'll serve as a reserve outfielder down the stretch.

Trevor Crowe will have his minor league rehab assignment transferred to Triple-A Columbus.

He is expected to play Tuesday. Crowe, who is working his way back from shoulder surgery, batted .444 (8-for-18) with two homers, three doubles, one triple and eight RBI in six games in the Arizona Rookie League. The 27-year-old outfielder should rejoin the Indians in September.

Trevor Crowe is out at least four months following right shoulder surgery.

Crowe, who didn't play at all during spring training, had the operation on Wednesday. The 27-year-old is scheduled to return to Cleveland on Saturday to begin a lengthy rehab process.

Indians placed OF Trevor Crowe on the 60-day disabled list with right rotator cuff soreness.

Crowe hasn't played at all this spring and there's no timetable for his return. He was moved to the 60-day DL in order to open up a spot on the 40-man roster.

Trevor Crowe (shoulder) will travel to New York on Wednesday for a surgical consultation with Dr. David Altcheck.

Crowe has been out all spring due to right rotator cuff soreness. It's possible that he could be placed on the 60-day disabled list in order to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. Michael Brantley is expected to see time in center field until Grady Sizemore is ready to play in mid-April.

Trevor Crowe (shoulder) is expected to resume playing catch within the next couple of days.

Crowe was shut down last week after complaining of weakness in the area of his rotator cuff. The Indians wanted to give him several days to rest and rebuild the strength of his shoulder. His readiness for Opening Day should be unaffected at this point.

Trevor Crowe's shoulder injury has been diagnosed as rotator cuff weakness.

His availability for spring training games is up in the air at this time, as he was unable to play in recent intrasquad games. Crowe's bid for a bench spot has taken a hit as a result of the injury, but obviously the sooner he's able to come back, the better.

Trevor Crowe's (shoulder) chances of making the team have taken a hit as he struggles with nagging injuries.

"It is definitely frustrating," Crowe said. "When you come in and the team goes out to stretch and then you go to work with the trainer, that's not a good feeling during the first week of Spring Training." Right now, he is suffering from a right shoulder injury, forcing him into the trainer's room while his outfield competition advances beyond him. He has no timetable for when he can return to playing catch. The 27-year-old had 442 at-bats with the Indians last season, batting .251/.302/.333 with 20 stolen bases, but won't see the same playing time in 2011 unless Grady Sizemore has a major setback, regardless of whether Crowe makes the Opening Day roster or not.

Indians manager Manny Acta said Monday that Trevor Crowe (wrist) is a little behind his other teammates.

Crowe is currently working his way back from surgery on his right elbow last October, so he'll at least sit out intersquad games on Thursday and Friday. The 27-year-old had 442 at-bats with the Indians last season, but is unlikely to see similar playing time in 2011 unless Grady Sizemore has a major setback.

Trevor Crowe said Tuesday that his surgically-repaired right elbow is "sound."

Crowe is going to take it easy this spring and ease back into throwing. He underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow at the end of last season after batting .251/.302/.333 with 20 stolen bases over 442 at-bats.

Trevor Crowe has undergone arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow.

He'll need six weeks to recover. Crowe's training routine for next season will not be interrupted and he'll be fine for spring training. The outfielder stole 20 bases this season but hit only .251/.302/.333 over 442 at-bats.

Trevor Crowe went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and an RBI in Friday's win over the Tigers.

Crowe has been dropped to the bottom of the order with Michael Brantley back in the bigs. But considering Crowe hasn't stolen a base since June 25 anyway, it's not going to affect anything. Leave Crowe on waivers.

Trevor Crowe returned to action on Friday June 18.

Trevor Crowe (knee) struck out in a pinch-hitting appearance in the ninth inning of Thursday's loss to the Mets.

Crowe has missed consecutive starts due to a bruised right knee. He's still listed as day-to-day.

Trevor Crowe was held out of the Indians' lineup on Thursday for a second consecutive night due to a bruised right knee.

Crowe has found a home as the Tribe's starting center fielder and leadoff man, but was replaced in the field by Austin Kearns and at the top of the lineup by shortstop Jason Donald on Thursday. "Trevor's OK; he's available,'' Indians manager Manny Acta said Thursday afternoon. "We wanted to give him one extra day. We anticipate him being ready (on Friday night).''

Trevor Crowe went 2-for-5 with a RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Royals.

Crowe, who was just called up on Saturday, batted in the leadoff spot and played center field. With Grady Sizemore (knee) out indefinitely, Crowe will find himself in that spot on most days. He's no longer a major prospect, but will hold value in AL-only leagues as long as Sizemore is out.
