Mike Wright Today, 2015

[OFFNY]

o

The Tides' broadcaster said that Wright was using Major League baseballs when pitching tonight.

He stated that if you are a major league pitcher on a rehab stint, you get to pitch with Major League baseballs.

Everybody else has to pitch with International League baseballs.

Can't get him up fast enough to take over for Gonzalez.

Yep, might as well see what we got with him. A back of the rotation SP on the cheap or a good BP arm.

Glad to hear it, I think Mike Wright has a lot of potential. I know most feel as a bullpen piece, time will tell. Welcome back.

Bullpen pieces are always needed!

At this point, I don't think he can be worse than Gonzo in the rotation. Hopefully, he doesn't get rattled like he did the first time he pitched against the Blue Jays, when Bautista gave him the stare down on an inside pitch.

This is a very righthanded heavy lineup. I don't think any of their lefties can hurt us, with the possible exception of Smoak who I see as an underachiever. If Mike is consistently down in the zone and throws strikes, I think he can have success today. Big if.

Oh my. Wright is pitching on short rest. This will be his 3rd start in nine days. I know he's rehabbing but I was hoping we were getting the extra rest, throwing upper 90's Wright. Instead this

8/27 4IP 51 pitches

9/1 6 IP 65 pitches

I guess the plan is to have him "start" and go to the pen as soon as we need to. I'll be watching and rooting. Hopefully he goes all out and tosses up something like 3-4 Innings of scoreless baseball then we go to the pen.

Or, they just want to watch him punch the bench again.

Or better, just before he exits, he brings a little cheese close to Joey Bats' junk and JB gives him some lip. The rest might be history.....:slytf:

No, I hear ya. You are right. I just hope he might be more, we will see.
