Mike Wright starting tomorrow per Roch

[Three Run Homer]

To state the obvious, he pitched very well tonight. Is it my imagination or did he throw a bit of a tantrum after Schoop's throwing error? I thought I saw that on the broadcast but haven't been able to find a replay. In any case, he settled down and made a good pitch to end the inning.

Seven innings. No earned runs against the defending World Champions.

[Dr. Unk]

I think I may have died. Is this real?

Great job tonight. Let's hope Ubaldo follows suit.

"When you look at the way you've pitched, and you have a 6 ERA - it's time to make a change." - Wright post game.

Yeah, heard that, lip service or for real? We will see...

Some guys mature at different rates. Be patient with him. Schoop needs to increase his baseball iq. Blowing by the hold sign was a rookie mistake.

What change? Really curious.

In the post game, he was saying getting sent down to the minors was a huge mental wake up call and needed to be able to control his emotions better on the mound.

No chance to double up Dyson either.

Buck said that Schoop was trying to fake a throw to first before going to third. Guess Manny taught him that one. I don't have much of a problem with that, although tied 0-0 in the seventh may not be the time to get cute. What I do have a problem with is him ducking his head and ignoring the stop sign in the seventh. I love that fact that he's having fun with Manny but he's no Manny and needs to realize that to be a star will require a ton of work on his part. Baseball should be fun but he has the chance to be a star imo and needs to work and grind to do that.

Their lineup is pretty feeble right now, and slumping badly. I'm glad Wright took advantage of them, but let's not make them out to be the '27 Yankees.

Very true, but let's not rain on Wright's parade. A confidence builder like this can propel him to fill his potential. This is just what the doctor ordered for him

He threw a lot more two seem fastballs which is why he was 92-93 most the night. The two seem gives him more sink which he used well.

I didn't even know we had two Mike Wrights in the system. They even bear a physical resemblance to one another, though their mental makeups seem very different. I don't know why we called the crappy one up first, but maybe we have the right Wright on the big club now.

[OFFNY]

We can still win the series in game 2 and 3.

Ok what's the line on head case Wright making it to the 4th inning. :rolleyestf:

Say your prayers.

Hide ya wife, hide ya kids.

**** you guys.

Sincerely,

Dennis Michael Wright

Satisfaction.

Honestly I didn't see anything tonight that made me think he could stay in the rotation. He threw 81 percent fastballs. I don't think that's going to work long-term. With the lack of strong secondary pitches, he could become a nice bullpen piece.

Party Pooper:)

I agree but it feels good to have hope.
