A year ago, Carl Crawford was stuck on the disabled list waiting to see whether he would even return for any part of the regular season after surgery on his right hand.
Today, Tampa Bay’s All-Star outfielder would be the first one to tell you about the difference a year makes.
Crawford, a legitimate American League Most Valuable Player candidate, joins teammates Evan Longoria and Jason Bartlett as the Rays’ three candidates for this year’s Hank Aaron Award. Fans can vote starting Wednesday on which player they think should be the finalist for their club.

The Rays had a little difficulty sorting out their place in history, research showing they were the fifth team, not the first, to total 100 home runs and 100 stolen bases before the All-Star break.
