Analysis:
The Cubs want to give their young pitchers some extra opportunities in the final week, so owners will only get one more start out of Wood this season. The Chicago pitcher to target on waiver wires heading into the final week is Kyle Hendricks, who will start Tuesday against St. Louis, while also pitching the season finale on Sept. 28 in Milwaukee.
