Wood is off to a surprising start to the season, with a 23:11 K:BB and a sub-1.00 WHIP through five starts (32 innings). His opponents have not all been as soft as the Marlins -- he faced the Rangers and Reds in his two previous outings.","date":"Sat Apr 27"},"fullName":"Travis Wood","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Last season, there were only two pitchers who threw more than 150 innings with a WHIP 1.20 or lower and finished with an ERA above 4.00: Mike Minor at 4.12 and Wood at 4.27. The primary reason for Wood's travail was a bloated HR/FB, made worse as a fly-ball pitcher. Normally, the conclusion is that Wood is a sneaky target, as his ERA should drop as his home run rate corrects. But absent from the analysis is a .244 BABIP, which should also correct -- but in the wrong direction. With such a wide range of potential 2013 outcomes, Wood is best used early at Wrigley Field while there is still a chill in the air and the homers are tougher to come by (at which point you can decide whether he is still viable as the weather warms).","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":3.9,"playerRater15DAY":3,"positionRank":32}
