44 Hunter Wood RP

Wood was outrighted to Cleveland's alternate training site Saturday, Ryan Lewis of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Wood was designated for assignment Thursday and passed through waivers unclaimed. While he remains in the team's player pool, the fact that he's no longer on the 40-man roster means he's one step further away from his next big-league appearance.

Wood was optioned to Cleveland's alternate camp site Wednesday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Dominic Leone and Cam Hill beat out Wood for the final spots in Cleveland's Opening Day bullpen. The 26-year-old Wood, who posted a 2.98 ERA and 1.28 WHIP across 45.1 innings last season, figures to join the big-league bullpen when a fresh arm is needed.

Wood (calf) allowed an unearned run on two hits while striking out two over one inning Thursday night against the Yankees.

Wood was forced to leave Monday's matchup against Boston after suffering a right calf contusion, but after a few days off, he was given the green light to return to the mound. He's posted a 2.08 ERA and 1.10 WHIP with 29 strikeouts over 34.2 innings this season for Cleveland.

Wood left Monday night's game against the Red Sox with a right calf contusion, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

Wood appears to have avoided a significant injury, and he'll likely be monitored on a daily basis moving forward. His availability for the remainder of the series should become more clear in the coming days.

Wood looked as though he wanted to stay in the game, but manager Terry Francona elected to play it safe by removing the right-hander. He'll be considered day-to-day until the extent of Wood's injury is revealed.

Wood was recalled from Triple-A Columbus on Saturday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

Wood was optioned to Columbus on Thursday but makes a quick return to the majors since A.J. Cole (shoulder) is headed to the injured list. The 25-year-old has fired three scoreless frames since being acquired by the Indians ahead of the trade deadline.

Wood was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Thursday.

Wood is likely unavailable for a day or two after firing two scoreless innings during Cleveland's bullpen game Wednesday, so he'll head back to the minors in exchange for a fresh bullpen arm (Josh Smith). In two appearances for the Indians since being acquired from the Rays at the end of July, Wood has allowed two hits while striking out three across three scoreless innings.

Wood and Christian Arroyo were traded from the Rays to the Indians on Sunday in exchange for Ruben Cardenas and international signing money, Tim Brown of Yahoo Sports reports.

Wood has been a reliable arm out of the bullpen (plus two games as an opener) this season for the Rays, posting a 2.48 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with a 24:7 K:BB over 29 innings. This deal will allow Tampa Bay to clear a roster spot for Eric Sogard, who was acquired from the Blue Jays earlier in the day.

The Rays recalled Wood from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Wood will enter the Tampa Bay bullpen as a replacement for Ryne Stanek, who was placed on the 10-day injured list with a sore right hip. Stanek has also frequently served as an opening pitcher for the Rays this season, so Wood could be tasked with filling in in that capacity as well. Wood has already made two of his prior 17 appearances with the Rays as an opener this season.

The Rays optioned Wood to Triple-A Durham on Thursday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Wood was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Friday.

Wood has pitched quite well for the Rays with a 2.33 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 17:5 K:BB, but he will nonetheless head back to Durham. The 25-year-old will likely make his way back to the majors at some point this season, while Casey Sadler takes his spot on the 25-man roster.

Wood (1-1) allowed one unearned run on two hits with three strikeouts and one walk across two innings while taking a loss against the Dodgers on Tuesday.

The Rays failed to rally after Wood exited the game, and thus he now has a loss on his record even though he still hasn't allowed an earned run this season (9.1 innings). Wood has opened one other game and picked up a win in relief.

Wood will be used as the opener for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, Josh Tolentino of The Athletic reports.

Wood (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

He missed a little over two weeks with a sore shoulder but is ready to return to the Rays' bullpen mix. Austin Pruitt was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Wood (shoulder) opened High-A Charlotte's win over Daytona on Monday and fired two scoreless innings in which he allowed a walk and recorded a strikeout.

The rehabbing reliever worked up to 32 pitches, 20 which found the strike zone. Wood was originally thought to be a candidate for activation following Monday's appearance, but Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports that manager Kevin Cash will sit with pitching coach Kyle Snyder and general manager Erik Neander this week to map out Wood's next step. "I heard [Monday's outing] went OK," Cash said. "I'm going to sit with Kyle and Erik, probably to talk about the next step with him going forward and whether he makes another [rehab appearance]. If he makes another one, whether it's in Port Charlotte or whether it's in Durham."
