Amid the expected comings and goings on the Cubs' roster Wednesday was the lingering and worrisome issue of closer Kerry Wood's health status.
The blister on his right index finger hasn't come close to healing the way the club expected by now, and Wood could be facing another trip to the disabled list after seeing a specialist in Chicago today. That might open the way for hard-throwing prospect Jeff Samardzija to make his major-league debut.
Considering the level of tenderness in the finger and the fact Wood hasn't pitched in 13 days, the chances seem remote he could return any sooner than next week in Milwaukee -- if not during the first homestand in August.
Wood threw on the side Wednesday to keep his arm active but threw only changeups, without using the index finger.
