Braves pitcher Alex Wood will pitch out of the bullpen, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Wood was moved to the pen in order to make room for Gavin Floyd. Though Wood has posted strong numbers, he understands the team's desire to save his innings. "If that's what's best for the team, I'm Ok with it," Wood said. He added that he hopes he doesn't have to stay in the bullpen too long.

Wood has a 3.00 ERA in 45 innings.
