I told you my gut said to start Wood over Santana. Both have been unlucky to start the season, but Wood has been unlucky to an extreme and is really a better fantasy pitcher option than Santana anyways. Starting off the week with six strikeouts and a clean ERA in a win is always good for your team. For the deeper league players, it wasn't super pretty, but Jeff Karstens was definitely a decent starter given the dearth of option. Tuesday's starter coming up...
