Trevor Thornton Crowe (born November 17, 1983) is a Major League Baseball outfielder in the Cleveland Indians organization. He was born on the same day as major league stars Ryan Braun and Nick Markakis.
Crowe, nicknamed "the Crow," was drafted by Cleveland 14th overall in the 2005 Major League Baseball Draft out of the University of Arizona. He was originally drafted out of Westview High School but not signed by the Oakland Athletics in the 20th round of the 2002 Major League Baseball Draft. Crowe was named to the 2006 Carolina League All-Star game, but was unable to participate due to injury. Another Oregonian and Crowe's 2005 Pac-10 Co-Player of the Year, Jacoby Ellsbury was named his replacement. He started the 2007 season as the Akron Aeros' starting center fielder. After an unsuccessful experiment at second base beginning in late August 2006, Crowe was moved permanently back to the outfield, rotating between all 3 outfield positions.
An all-around athlete, Crowe was a competitive racquetball player in his teenage years and was one of the top players in the nation.
After initially being optioned to the minors on March 28, 2009, Crowe was recalled at the end of Spring Training due to an injury to David Dellucci and was part of the Indians' Opening Day roster.[1]
Crowe started as the right fielder for the Indians in his MLB debut on April 9, 2009 against the Texas Rangers at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. Crowe went 0-for-5 including one strikeout.
Crowe was outrighted to the Triple-A Columbus Clippers on November 2, 2011. He was invited to the Indians' 2012 spring training camp as a non-roster invitee on February 15, 2012.
