Carl out; Rocco back

The Rays will be without LF Carl Crawford tonight and Friday as he serves his two-game suspension for his actions disputing a call in the Sept. 3 game against Baltimore. An appeal yielded only a reduction of the $1000 fine.

Meanwhile, word is that OF Rocco Baldelli, out since mid May with a left hamstring strain and the subject of much speculation, will be at Safeco Field tonight. Most likely he is there to just work out - and hang out - with the team. Details as they are available.
