Wood (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day disabled list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wood's move to the 60-day disabled list opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for David Fletcher's contract selection. Wood is expected to miss the remainder of the 2018 season and a good chunk of the 2019 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery in May.

Wood (elbow) underwent successful Tommy John surgery Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Wood will now be sidelined for the next 12-to-14 months while recovering from the procedure. He'll likely be shifted to the 60-day disabled list at some point to free up a 40-man roster spot for the Angels.

Wood (elbow) will require his second Tommy John surgery, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wood had been dealing with damage to his UCL, but it's since been announced that he'll require Tommy John surgery. It's unclear when the procedure will take place, but he'll be forced to miss the rest of the 2018 season, and likely most of the 2019 campaign as he works his way back.

Wood (elbow) underwent an MRI that revealed damage to his UCL.
EDGE Analysis
This is an unfortunate development for Wood, as the veteran right-hander was on the cusp of returning from an elbow impingement before suffering the setback. He's set to receive a second opinion before determining the next step in his recovery. As is often the case with UCL injuries, Tommy John surgery remains firmly on the table for Wood.

Wood (elbow) said Friday he is ready to rejoin the Angels, but no plan has been made yet for his reinstatement from the 10-day disabled list, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wood allowed a run in 1.2 innings pitched over his two rehab appearances, but most importantly, his elbow is feeling fine after the work. The Angels may delay his return until this weekend for roster management reasons, but Wood could be back in the Angels bullpen any day now.

Wood (elbow) will make another minor-league rehab appearance Thursday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old, who has been sidelined since April 23 with an elbow injury, tossed a scoreless inning in his first rehab appearance for High-A Inland Empire on Monday. It's unclear where Wood will report for Thursday's outing at this point, but he could be back with the Angels shortly thereafter if everything goes off without a hitch.

Wood (elbow) will likely require at least one more rehab appearance, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wood tossed an 13-pitch scoreless inning for High-A Inland Empire on Monday in his first rehab performance. The 32-year-old could return for this weekend's series against the Rays if one additional rehab appearance is all that's needed, but the specifics of where and when that outing will occur are currently unclear.

Wood (elbow) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment at High-A Inland Empire on Monday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wood has been on the disabled list since April 21 and began throwing off a mound Friday. The expected length of the rehab assignment is unknown at this point, but the 32-year-old appears to be nearing his potential return to the Angels.

Wood (elbow) threw off a mound Wednesday and again Friday, the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wood has been out since late April with an elbow impingement. He's likely to begin a rehab assignment next week. Prior to the injury, he was throwing well, recording a 2.31 ERA in 11.2 innings.

Wood (elbow) is expected to throw a bullpen session in the near future, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Wood's return to mound work was supposedly imminent for a few days, but the Angels have been reluctant to clear him to do so while he continues to experience some minor inflammation in his right elbow. The 32-year-old has been sidelined since April 21 with the injury and will almost certainly require a minor-league rehab assignment before coming off the 10-day disabled list.
