FACTS/FLUKES: A. Wood, Heyward, Byrd, Granderson, C. Anderson

Wood makes adjustments … Alex Wood (LHP, ATL) showed a lot of promise after a stellar 2014 season, but things didn’t go well through his first six starts in 2015 (4.32 ERA). Following a rough start on May 4, he told reporters that he needed to make some modifications. Since then, he has a 2.52 ERA over nine starts. Can he sustain this string of strong outings?
