Wood, who has 13.86 ERA in his past 3 starts, has been dealing with shoulder impingement for ‘some time.’
SAN FRANCISCO — Over his past three starts, Alex Wood hasn’t been the same pitcher the Giants came to depend upon last year and for large stretches of this season. On Saturday, we learned why.
The issues in Wood’s shoulder have been “build up” for “some time,” manager Gabe Kapler said, but on Saturday reached the point that both sides agreed a stint on the injured list would be best. After taking a 4.18 ERA into his Aug. 19 start at Colorado, Wood has allowed 19 earned runs in 12⅓ innings over his past three starts, raising that mark to 5.10.
Although an IL stint in September for a non-contending club would typically signal the end of a pitcher’s season, Kapler didn’t rule out the possibility of Wood pitching again this year. However, with the playoffs all but out of reach, the club will prioritize Wood’s health entering next season. He is under contract for 2023 at $12.5 million.
