Wood Redux

A few weeks back I was critical of Kerry Wood, mostly due to the fact that it appeared that he wasn't pitching, just throwing. He wasn't mixing up his pitches and he was getting lit up.

A couple of games does not a season make, but I have to give credit where it is due. The way that he threw today is exactly what I had hoped for. Hitting spots, mixing in some off-speed/breaking balls.

Today, he looked like a pitcher. Not quite Maddux-esque, but hey, I'll take it. Whatever he was doing, I hope he keeps it up. It was sure fun to watch, especially that last curveball.
