The Boston Red Sox are pausing pitcher Kutter Crawford's rehab due to a wrist injury, according to manager Alex Cora. Crawford, 29, hasn't pitched in a game this season due to knee and wrist issues. He threw his second bullpen session of the week on Friday in the hopes of progressing to a rehab assignment but suffered a setback with the wrist.

The Boston Red Sox shut down Kutter Crawford after the starter suffered a setback with his wrist issue, and plan to get him an MRI in Boston.
