Career	1,380	3.67	1.27	4.34	10.32

Drafted in the 1st round (4th overall) by the Chicago Cubs in 1995 (signed for $1,265,000)

Wood has an exceptional arm. Not only is the velocity on his fastball equal to that of any pitcher in the draft, but it has heavy, late boring action. His curve also has a tight rotation, giving him two well above-average pitches that he throws with a minimum effort. Scouts say Wood is so advanced that he should be ready for the big leagues faster than all but one or two college pitchers.
