Indians close to deal with Wood
The Cleveland Indians are discussing a multi-year deal with free-agent closer Kerry Wood, and according to MLB.com, the two sides are "close" to a deal, but that has not been confirmed. Wood has pitched his entire 11-year career with the Chicago Cubs, but the Cubs said they would not re-sign Wood this offseason after they made a trade last month to acquire reliever Kevin Gregg from the Florida Marlins.

I can't help it, but I love Cliff Lee. With players like Lee, who needs closers?

Because Lee can't pitch every night and the other losers in the Indians rotation need to be saved.

This guy has never made it through a whole season without being on the DL, very bad move.

Twenty million over two years seems like a whole heckuva lot for such a brittle pitcher.

Besides a blister, since moving to the bullpen, Wood has stayed healthy.

Waste of $. The Indians are the only team to have anything to do with that unreliable arm. He's going to be a bust. (famous last words)
