You have to wonder why the Indians would spend what little free agent money they had last year on Kerry Wood. It didn't make much sense to think that a group of has-beens, never were's and never gonna be's could get enough games to the late innings with an Indians lead for him to save.
Now that he is injured, there really doesn't seem to be much difference. The team still blows the games late. Somebody has to win the close games, but it doesn't seem like it will be the Tribe very often. The big bucks they paid to him wouldn't have helped the team much anyway.
He won't put anybody in the seats, either, since no one knows when he's goint to get into the game. At least fans would turn out when Cliff Lee was pitching.
On a funny note, I would following the game on Yahoo Sports and they have pictures of the players as they come to bat. Ryan Garko was still wearing his Indians hat. Players move around quickly these days.
