Losing one of your guys in free agency is always tough as a baseball team. But when that player goes to a division rival, it stings a little bit more. That’s what the Dodgers face with Alex Wood as he heads up north to pitch for the Giants.
Wood signed a one-year deal with San Francisco that will pay him $3 million, a huge deal for the Giants. More importantly, it will give Wood to be a full-time starter for the first time in a few years. Wood was not given that opportunity in his second go-around with the Dodgers.
