Kyle Wright - Page 7 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Cleared for throwing Wright (shoulder) was cleared to begin a throwing program Thursday, Gabe Burns of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Wright was placed on the injured list in early May because of a shoulder strain and is likely to remain sidelined until after the All-Star break, but he can begin building up this week with flat-ground work. That will eventually morph into bullpen sessions and then live batting practice, with a minor-league rehab assignment to follow. If all goes smoothly, the 27-year-old right-hander could return to Atlanta's starting rotation in about four weeks.

Goes on 60-day IL Atlanta transferred Wright (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.

Impact Shortly after landing on the 15-day IL earlier this month for the second time this season on account of a right shoulder strain, Wright disclosed that he expected to be out of commission for at least two months, so his move to the 60-day IL isn't overly surprising. The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Dereck Rodriguez, whom Atlanta claimed off waivers from Minnesota in a corresponding move. A clearer timeline for Wright's return likely won't be available until he resumes a throwing program, but fantasy players should proceed as though he'll be sidelined through the All-Star break.

IL stint will be multiple months Wright (shoulder) is expected to be sidelined at least two months, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact Max Fried (forearm) is also expected to miss at least two months, but Wright indicated that his absence could be even longer because his right shoulder strain is a recurrence of a previous injury. He will remain shut down until the shoulder fully heals before slowly ramping things back up. Fantasy managers shouldn't count on Wright returning until after the All-Star break.

MRI reveals shoulder strain An MRI taken Friday on Wright's shoulder revealed a shoulder strain, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Impact The bad news is that Wright does have the strain revealed after being placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday with his shoulder trouble, and there's no timetable for the right-hander to return. The good news is there's no further structural damage, so it doesn't appear this will be something could end the 27-year-old's campaign. That being said, Wright will miss at least the next two weeks, and it's very possible this injury could carry into June or further.

Goes on IL Atlanta placed Wright on the 15-day injured list Thursday with right shoulder inflammation.

Impact Wright will return to the IL for the second time in 2023 on account of a right shoulder issue, as he was previously excluded from Atlanta's season-opening rotation when he was delayed during spring training after battling shoulder soreness during his offseason throwing program. He lasted just two innings in his start Wednesday against the Marlins before succumbing to shoulder inflammation. Atlanta could put Wright through more testing to determine if he's dealing with anything more significant than swelling in the shoulder, but at least for the time being, he'll be in line to miss at least the next two weeks. The big club recalled Dylan Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett to fill Wright's spot in the rotation beginning with Thursday's series finale in Miami.

Impressive in no-decision Wright did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing two runs on four hits with three walks over 6.2 innings in the victory over the Royals. He struck out six.

Impact Wright showcased significant improvement in his second start, limiting the Royals to two runs until exiting the game in the sixth inning. Unfortunately, a two-run homer by Vinnie Pasquantino tied the game in the seventh, denying the 27-year-old his first win of the year. The right-hander's performance was an encouraging sign for the Atlanta starting rotation as he looks to return to the dominant form he displayed during the 2022 season. Wright will bring a 6.23 ERA and 1.73 WHIP into his next start, tentatively scheduled for the end of this week against Houston.
