One bad inning (the 4th) over 5.67 overall.

Also, he did not walk a single batter until there were 2 outs in the 6th inning, at which point he was replaced.

He had an excellent strikes-to-balls ratio (66 Strikes, 31 Balls), also.

I'm not going to keep a running line for Wright, hence the title of the thread is "Mike Wright," and not "Mike Wright Today," but I wanted to get one (thread) going for one of our top starting pitching prospects who is playing at the highest level (AAA) of the minors.

Physically, he reminds me of Jim Johnson. I'd gladly have another of those at cheap prices for 4-5 years.

But Johnson was a failed starter as most relievers are. I don't see them abandoning him in a starting role until he proves he can't handle it. However, I'm all for replacing Hunter with Wright after he records 50 saves this year and his price skyrockets.

2 earned runs over 5.67 innings.

Excellent strikes-to-balls ratio (61 Strikes, 28 Balls.)

Only 1 walk.

Excellent strikes-to-balls ratio (52 Strikes, 28 Balls.)

Only 1 walk, and 6 strikeouts.

The negatives are self-explanatory.

As was pointed out last year here, if he's throwing 94-95 MPH as a starter, he's probably upper 90's as a reliever. Assuming that's not a very straight fastball, that's a great weapon for a reliever, and only Hunter on the current MLB roster can do that. Realistically, I think the chances aren't good that he's going to make it as a starter for the O's, but he could be a very important asset in the pen.

Blitzed in the 4th inning after putting up goose-eggs in the first 3 frames.

Also, not a good strikes-to-balls ratio (47 Strikes, 36 Balls), and 3 walks in only 3.33 innings pitched.

10 OUTS: 3 Groundouts (Including 1 Double Play, 3 Flyouts, 1 Strikeout, 1 Popout, 1 Lineout
