Carl should keep his mouth shut because he still has Beckett there as well as Adrian “Jailhouse Lawyer” Gonzalez. Bottom line is that I will give you a buy for last year but not 2011 your first year here. Carl you did not get it done nor produce anything near what you accomplished with the Rays in 2010. I just don’t think that you can perform in a big market like Boston. Lets see what you do in LA this year.

More proof he’s a fragile player – physically and mentally.  Sox didn’t do the right homework on him before signing him.  What a train-wreck! Glad the sox get his delicate head case out of here. Thank you dodgers!!!!!

He could have taken less to play with the Angels plus he knew Ellsbury was here..

 I totally agree. Crawford brought everything on himself. The club house might have been toxic but that’s not an excuse to his poor playing/injured self.

1 more thing… FU WEEI for getting rid of Glenn. Funny how you didnt put a comment section under your article about the matter. You knew negative responses are coming.

HEY CARL IF YOU PLAY OUT THERE, THE WAY YOU PLAYED HERE, SEE HOW TOXIC IT GETS.

Lights were too bright and he wasn’t even in Boston for a playoff run!

Sorry he signed with the Sox,yea right 130 million.I know this is monday morning quarterbacking,but coming from Tampa Bay its no wonder.Even Gonzalez as good as he was was’nt as good in Boston.This is a big market club first place or last place.The Red Sox front office has to worry about talent as well as toughness playing under the gun here.It appears that they have learned their lesson.I like the attitudes of the new guys,now lets see how it unfolds.

Believe it or not,i would take Gomes over Crawford fielding in left.The wall hurt Crawford but it will elp Gomes.Crawford was the worse starting leftfielder i have ever seen in Boston.

Yea alot less.The Sox way overpaid him,no one else came close to the Sox offer.The more i think about it now,the more i think these new signings are the best route to take at this point in time.Crawford did’nt spend enough time playing to have any idea just how toxic the clubhouse was,what is he talking about.LA Dodgers are big market,good luck L.A.

Greed first got the better of Crawford. Now he is victim of his own maudlin self-pity. The operative term is loser.

I d be depressed too with all those millions.

Waa waa waa. I feel so bad for a guy with a 100+ million dollar contract, while others are out there making minimum wage and providing for their families. Speed and range in the outfield never amounted to that type of contract and never will. People made him out to be a 5 tool outfielder when he was a 3 tool at best. Hopefully he’ll be able to put on his own jock strap this season… god knows Beckett will help if he can’t.

I wonder if he realizes that his play helped contribute to it being toxic? 

With comments like these I’m even more amazed the Sox were able to dump his contract. Easily the trade of the century.

The worse signing in Sox history by far. He took the money, didn’t deserve to make that much, and was much of the reason for the “toxic” clubhouse. A selfish pro athlete who isn’t man enough to take accountability for his failings. He can go to hell in LA.

typical whiny spoiled overpaid mentally weak over entitled over paid underperforming entertainer….. sometimes it’s best to keep you mouth shut

Yes, the clubhouse was toxic. No, that does not excuse your performance, Carl.

On another note, WEEI has lost a loyal listener in the afternoons thanks to them giving Glenn Ordway the boot. Also, way to disable comments on the “press release” you cowards. I still can not believe people actually preferred those mouth-breathers over on comcast net. 

This guy

Why didnt he just say he’s weak mided, fragile, and doesnt like pressure?…. If things dont work out in LA LA Land, theres always the Pittsburg, Oakland, Colorado, the Cubs…..those guys wont expect much from you Carl…..what a loser.

 I couldn’t agree more!!  First the Fire Pete, then a few years later bring him back.  Then they get rid of Dale, move Holley to the big show and then bring Dale back on weekends and fill in. Then they give Merloni his own show with a know-nothing fool like Mut for the 10-2 shift.  Now they fire Glenn and bring in some stranger we know nothing about who’s been in media purgatory for 4 years (Seattle).  If you ask me, it sounds like the guys calling the shots need to go, not Glenn.  Other than cutting him for his big paycheck, there isn’t any logic behind the move.  Dumb.

 I’d be thrilled to get paid that kind of money and get drilled in the media!  I’m in!

he clearly said his performance didn’t help, but the atmosphere is a problem. Unfortunately, unless they change. I think we only got rid of one problem. The rest still exist unless they change

In the history of the Red Sox , this is one of the biggest CANCERS the team ever had …

Good riddance , LOWLIFE
.

Was the $142 million toxic too Carl? You tortured us when you played with the Rays
(6 steals in one game) but from day one with the Sox you sucked. Have fun playing in Chavez Ravine where the fans arrive late, leave early and sip Chardonay.

Carl Crawford truly needs prayer more than anything else. He truly needs to lay hold of the grace of God in order to not become so bitter, yet very thankful for all that life has given him. Merely changing physical locations is not going to do it for him, he needs to change what’s located in heart; and only a one-on-one encounter with Christ is gonna salve the problem in his heart & mind (Matt 11:28-30) which it appears he so desperately needs. He sounds like a totally wounded soul….and Boston is not the problem as he may think.

Now he’s whining and complaining with Beckett and Gonzalez in LA  , as opposed to whining and complaining with those lowlifes in Boston

THE ONLY THING TOXIC CARL IS YOUR HIT…

Do not hang out in parking lot or you could be stabbed.

Sox were the morons for signing Crawford for that absurd contract in the first place.  Still can’t believe they were able to unload him onto the Dodgers though!

Glad you got all those toxins out of your system. Maybe now you can earn a buck you big Baby. Is it possible you were TOO sexy for Boston. I wonder if Henry gets as sick as I am listening to these overpaid bozos spout off.

This just in: Crawford broke his fingernail, and will miss the first half of the season!

I think the reason he stole those bases was to get Epstein’s attention to get that big contract from Boston. He ‘s a self serving jerk.

Mr. Tuesday runs his mouth better than he runs the bases. 

Bye Carl.Have a great life.By the way.Shut the hell up and don’t ever think of Boston again.We will try to get you out of our nightmares.

Money does not buy happiness. But then agaib ge qas well over payed for being average player

BYE BYE Carl- so happy that you are happy you left because quite personally Im ecstatic that you are gone..BYE BYE..

Funny, I don’t remember fans getting on Crawford too much … but … a) I’ve never seen a player … especially one with plus speed… jog down to first as much as he did …. b) I’ve never seen a guy that was supposed to be an elite fielder, look so bad in the field …. anyone remember him ever diving for anything … certainly he didn’t for the last play of 2011. Think its hard to buy  a present for someone that signed a 142 million dollar contract? Not really, In Carl’s case all you need to get him is a “Clue” … because clearly he doesn’t have one!

c’mon now crawford u couldn’t handle the pressure playin’ in boston. u couldn’t handle playin’ in front of fans who KNOW baseball. u couldn’t handle the fact that those fans held u accountable for ur play. so now ur in la la land where there is no pressure. u will probably do just fine there. but ur a loser carl. u ain’t no ballplayer. u just play ball. i’m happy ur gone. i’d rather have a less talented kid who is tryin’ than an overpaid wuss-ass who is scared. and carl, u were scared u chickenshit.

are we sure that Crawford is a male? 

hey Carl lets see how you plat this year . Lets see how it is playing in a empty stadium like Tampa..  Carl did you ever think you might have been one of the toxic players. Yeah carl you go down in history as a player who played for red sox where every player was toxic. Have fun in your new town. Where do I send the diapers

Well, it was toxic.

Would like to hear his thoughts on the medical staff.

If Crawford his healthy, he could join Agon and Beckett on the All Star team.

 He is in LA which is where he wanted to be in the first place at the same money he signed for the Red Sox.  Plus he is away from that Kevorkian medical crew.  Life is good now.

How does Kirk Minihane still have a f..kin job but Ordway goes? BS

Also. Crawford shut your mouth and prove that it was Boston’s fault that you were under-performing. Otherwise you are just making excuses

When will people realize that these athletes are just morons that will say whatever suits them at the time. If they traded him back to the Red Sox tomorrow he would talk about what a great organization we are and how the Dodgers suck,
 

          I bet he didn’t say the environment was ‘toxic’ when he picked up his paycheck. (Unearned paycheck)!!!

We need new owners! Please sell the team to someone that loves the game!

Glenn ruled. Time for CBS!

Totally agree. Losing Glenn is a huge self-inflicted problem–a huge number of listeners are going to vote with their feet.
Is Larry Luchino doing management consulting on the side for ‘EEI?

It appears they are cut from the same mold!

Kill yourself

So many but hurt douchebags here. Boston fans still proving they are the biggest scumbags in baseball.

But Carl forgot to mention the money the Red Sox also gave to him, more then anybody else would of and did, be forgets to mention also the choice he made in being a professional athlete, you travel, you play for the game and get paid mighty good at it, you play a kids game for along time, so do not cry wolf, you know the life style of sports, your not a dummy or are you. you just cannot take the other side of the sport of being in a huge market, cannot take the pressure, you wilt under the lime light, like most others, get the huge check and lie down, bet you, you do losey in LA, what you gonna have for a excuse when you  do not do good, cry wolf again, will see if you do, or are you gonna come up with ghostly injury that you might say you have, when the average just isn’t up to par, we will see.

I hated his signing from the start and actually agreed with John Henry’s (and others) assessment at the time that adding Crawford made ZERO sense!…LOL…just shut up Carl and show you can actually play outside the insulated protection of 81 games a year @ “The Trop”. The jury is still out whether you’ll be able to perform under pressure in a high media scenario.I say that it’s never gonna happen! My eternal thanks go out to the Dodgers for taking him and the once respected but turned “cancerous” Josh Beckett out of Boston!

Because McDaniels did so well in Denver
