The Rays are expected to pick up a $10 million club option for the 2010 season. If Tampa Bay exercises the option, the left fielder would be eligible for free agency after next season. ``In the offseason, I'd be open to whatever they're open to,'' Crawford said before Wednesday night's game against Baltimore. ``They know that. I'm prepared either way.'' Crawfor | |
