Chicago has cold weather, and right this minute Arkansas has cold weather, but according to CBS Sports, SportsNet.ca (Canada) and MLB columnist Jon Paul Morosi, if the Toronto Blue Jays get their way, it could mean that free agent, Bryant High School alum and lefty pitcher Travis Wood may have to get used to an even colder climate.
#BlueJays also showing interest in Travis Wood, along with Blevins and Logan. They are heavily involved in LH relief market. @MLB

Wood is a free agent after spending five years on the Chicago Cubs roster. In that last season, along with the others on the Cubs team, became World Series champions after a 108-year drought for the franchise. A big homecoming was held for Wood back here in Bryant. You can see that story below:
