ARLINGTON, Texas -- Indians outfielder Trevor Crowe on Friday underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow to remove loose bodies. Dr. Lewis Yocum performed the operation in Los Angeles.
The Indians said Crowe will need about six weeks to recover. His training routine for next season is not expected to be interrupted and he should be ready to open spring training on time.
Crowe spent most of this year with the Indians. He hit .251 (111-for-442) with 24 doubles, three triples, two homers and 36 RBI. He stole 20 bases in 27 attempts and was second on the team with nine assists from the outfield.
