Alex Wood Stats

The San Francisco Giants are finalizing a deal with left-handed starting pitcher Alex Wood which will tie him to the team for two more seasons. The contract will be for at least $20 million dollars in total. Wood spent the 2021 season with the club, providing 138 2/3 innings across 26 starts with a 3.83 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, and 152 strikeouts. He had only managed 48 1/3 innings in the previous two seasons. Wood provides plenty of value as a fantasy asset, especially given his strong strikeout rate, but the concern will always be his health. He'll be a risk/reward option come draft time.

San Francisco Giants starting pitchers Anthony DeSclafani and Alex Wood did not receive one-year, $18.4 million qualifying offers from the team on Sunday. The 31-year-old DeSclafani had a career season in San Francisco in 2021 after signing a one-year, $6 million deal. The right-hander had an excellent 3.17 ERA in his 31 starts while striking out 152 and walking 42 in 167 2/3 innings. Wood, a 30-year-old southpaw, also had a solid season with a 3.83 ERA over 26 starts while striking out 152 and walking 39 in 138 2/3 innings for the Gigantes. Wood signed a one-year, $3 million deal with the Giants before last season, so it's safe to say that San Francisco hit it out of the park with both DeSclafani and Wood in free agency last year.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Alex Wood got the job done in NLDS Game 3's 1-0 win over the Dodgers. With the Giants coming off a loss in Game 2 to tie the series, Wood righted the ship once again, pitching 4 2/3 scoreless innings with two hits, two walks, and four strikeouts on the road. It may not have been the longest start, but it was enough to put the Giants in a position to win. Wood will need to continue to produce clutch performances like this if the Giants hope to extend their playoff run.
