BOSTON -- The Red Sox just announced that Coco Crisp has decided to appeal his seven-game suspension, effective immediately, which enables him to take part in tonight's game.

Jon Lester, who was suspended five games, has decided to accept his suspension and will begin serving it tonight.

Sean Casey, meanwhile, has told the team that his decision on an appeal is pending, since his suspension isn't due to begin until Saturday, June 14. Earlier today, however, Casey told the Journal that he intended to appeal the suspension.
