Good morning, baseball fans!
Last month, the San Francisco Giants’ outlook for Alex Wood’s return was not great. After exiting the game on April 18th with a hamstring injury, Wood was placed on the 15-day injured list, with manager Gabe Kapler saying that the starter was likely to miss “several weeks, at least.”
However, Wood pitched two simulated innings on Tuesday, indicating that a rehab stint and subsequent return to the team could be coming soon, which would provide some stability for a team who has been playing rotation Jenga since his injury.
