INDIANAPOLIS -- This item may come labeled "no surprise," but the Indians are shopping former Cub Kerry Wood to any takers.

Least surprised at the story in the Cleveland Plain-Dealer would be Wood, who said a couple of weeks ago he expected to have his name pop up in trade talks now that the Indians are going younger and cheaper.

Wood, who signed for $20.5 million over two years last December, may have a hard time finding a new team because of his price tag. And the Indians are not willing to eat any of the money. He might be more valuable as trade bait during the season when teams' needs become more glaring.

I doubt it. Bradley has twice as much money and years left on his deal than Wood. Plus Bradley has been on Cleveland and I don't think they are one of his former teams that want him back.

Would Cleveland take Bradley for Wood?
