Everyone knows the Astros are pushing against the second level of the luxury cap, so any signings at best will be “bargain bin” type of signings. So we’ll continue looking through the bargain bin to see if there’s anyone who interests us. Today, that player is none other than Alex Wood.
Who is Alex Wood
Wood is a Left Handed starting pitcher who rocks the prototypical pitchers body coming in at 6’4, 215 lb. From an age perspective, Wood is hitting the market at 28 years old which would normally be right in the prime of a pitcher.
