Wood told reporters earlier in camp that the opportunity to be a starter was a big factor in choosing to sign the A’s. Wood, an All-Star with the Dodgers in 2017, pitched exclusively as a starter during his first two seasons with the Giants, playing a key role in the team’s 107-win season in 2021 when he went 10-4 with a 3.83 ERA. He opened last season in the Giants rotation as well and had a 1.80 ERA after three starts before suffering a hamstring injury. Wood never got untracked upon his return and after six inconsistent starts moved into the swing reliever role. He made just three starts after June 22.
