2017 Dodgers review: Alex Wood

Alex Wood began the season in the Dodgers bullpen but ended up an integral part of the starting rotation.

After a spot start in the second week of the season, Wood joined the starting rotation for good by the 17th game of the season.

Wood made his first All-Star team thanks to winning his first 11 decisions, and posted a 1.67 ERA before the break.

He was National League Pitcher of the Month in May after going 5-0 with a 1.27 ERA with 41 strikeouts and seven walks.

At 16-3, Wood is one of just seven pitchers in Dodgers history to win at least 16 games in a season while losing no more than three times.
