Wood set to pitch Sunday

[littlelike (o(.〝.)o)]

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Just before the All-Star break, the Chicago Cubs are

getting their ailing rotation back together.

Kerry Wood, who's been on the 15-day disabled list for almost two months

with a strained right triceps muscle, is set to pitch Sunday against

St. Louis in the Cubs' final game before the break.

Wood, 3-3 with a 2.82 ERA, threw a short bullpen session before Friday's game

and reported no problems. He's been on the DL since May 12.

``He doesn't feel any soreness today, just the normal soreness in his leg and

his butt and all of the good places,'' manager Dusty Baker said. ``It looks

like he's going to be fine.''

Mark Prior could have pitched on four days' rest Sunday, but instead he will

start the first game after the break at home against Milwaukee on Thursday.

``It's time for Woody, that's what it is,'' Baker said. ``Then we take the

break and it kind of sets up our rotation after the break.''

Three of the Cubs' pitchers are on pitch counts, including Prior and

Greg Maddux, and Baker doesn't want to throw any of them on consecutive days

to avoid taxing his bullpen.


明天是不是伍德要取代普來爾先發？
