Jon Weisman of Showtime shared his thoughts on Wood.
Dodgers went 15 years without a pitcher allowing three HR in a quality start, until Yu Darvish and Alex Wood both did so in past five days.

Wood has posted a 14-1 record for Los Angeles this season with a 2.41 ERA. This is Wood’s best season as a pro and the club is hoping the injury isn’t too serious that he will be back sooner rather than later.
Los Angeles is already dealing with an injury to ace Clayton Kershaw who will make a rehab start this Saturday in Oklahoma City. As more information surfaces on the Dodgers and their roster news we will keep you up to date.
