The Tribune reported today that Kerry Wood was scheduled to have his first bullpen session since spring training. With the rain, it's unclear if he got it in today or if he had to wait until tomorrow. It's possible he did it indoors.

Anyway, I like Kerry a lot and hope he makes it back. The Tribune says he's eyeing an early-August return after a minor league rehab. However, given his history, I doubt he'll get through the minor league rehab without re-injuring himself.

I wonder if he's one more injury away from announcing his retirement at age 29. More and more, he's looking like this era's Mark Fidrych (although he did have a few effective years in the majors, unlike Fidrych, who only had one. Fidrych's one year, however, was far better than any of the healthy years Kerry had.)
