ATLANTA -- The Dodgers will activate Carl Crawford on Tuesday after a long recovery from a right oblique injury that put him on the 60-day disabled list and ended with an extended rehab stint with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
"It's wonderful to be back," Crawford said Monday. "It was a rough journey to get back. Was out for a while and then the rehab was taking a long time, but I finally got back to this point, and I'm happy about that."
Crawford began his rehab assignment on June 30 and played two games with Class A Advanced Rancho Cucamonga before eight more games with Oklahoma City.
