Wood Bothered by back Stiffness

Kerry Wood has not pitched in a spring training game yet for the Indians because he has had back stiffness. He threw a bullpen session the other day and should start playing in games soon. I am glad the Cubs let Kerry Wood walk for 10 million a year! I like Kerry Wood and think he is a good pitcher when healthy, but his health is a big problem. He is never healthy and not dependable. Yes, most of his injuries aren’t season ending, but you can’t depend on him as your closer. He is sometimes not an option for days at a time with these little nagging injuries. I wish Kerry Wood all the best, but after hearing about his back stiffness I am so glad we didn’t continue the Kerry Wood saga in Chicago.
