Wood had struck out 3 over 2.1 IP until he appeared to injure himself fielding a sac bunt.
Until the injury, Wood had mostly been cruising. He had required only 33 pitches to complete 2⅓ innings with three strikeouts, a walk and one hit. He was credited with an earned run, after Junis allowed a sac fly by Jon Berti that scored Stallings. It was only the fourth run Wood had allowed in 10 innings over his first three starts this year, a 1.80 ERA.
If Wood is required to miss time, there are no shortage of candidates to fill his spot in the rotation. The most likely option would be right-hander Ross Stripling, whose early season struggles have meant that he has been serving mostly in a swingman capacity with five other starters already on the roster. In the bullpen, they also have Junis and Sean Hjelle who are stretched out and capable of starting if necessary.
While the Giants have said top prospect Kyle Harrison could debut early this season, he likely has more to prove at Triple-A, where he has a 7.50 ERA and 10 walks to seven strikeouts in six innings over his first three starts this season.
