Wood Returns to Cubs

ESPN radio in Chicago is reporting that the Cubs have re-signed free agent Kerry Wood to a 1-yr, $4 million deal.

If so, we can only think 2 things. 1) that would felt some loyalty to the Cubbies and 2) he's hoping to have a big year to get a big payoff. There's no doubt he could have gotten a multi-year deal with a number of teams, the Yankees included.
