Wood will skip one or two starts due to a recurrence of the sternum joint issue that bothered him earlier this season, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.
Wood missed a start in early June due to the same issue, which was initially thought to be a shoulder injury but turned out to be minor. The same discomfort has returned, so the Dodgers won't take any chances with their 14-1 pitcher as they nurse a gigantic NL West lead. Expect a DL announcement shortly.
