Dodgers News: Happy Birthday, Alex Wood

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Alex Wood turns 26 years old today.

Wood has battled injuries during his Dodger tenure, but will be given the chance to earn a significant role in the bullpen in 2017 spring training. The left-hander also serves as a spot starter.

Wood, a former University of Georgia standout, was acquired from the Atlanta Braves two trade deadlines ago. Our Brian Robitaille listed him as one of five under-the-radar Dodgers who could shine in 2017.
