Crisp -- Surgery On Finger Set For Monday

Gordon Edes, Globe:

Coco Crisp is scheduled to undergo surgery on his left index finger Monday.

We're still awaiting some word of explanation from team medical director Thomas Gill ... but there is a fracture in the bone that will require a pin or a screw to be inserted. ... Crisp is back in Boston. Francona said he will be ready for the start of spring training.
