Mike Wright pitching in KBO

[bpilktree]

Wright is on ESPN 2 starting in the KBO.

[Moose Milligan]

I just started violently twitching.

To think there were some people worried Mike Wright would pull a Jake Arrieta and somehow blossom once he was gone simply because #OriolesTragic, that the Orioles had somehow screwed up Mike Wright, or because the universe is just aligned against the Orioles.

Is that a real thing, or is that just atomic-level commentary on how the Orioles have screwed up everything from Jake Arrieta to the hot dogs?  I don't know how anyone could see Mike Wright pitch and think he's going to win a Cy Young.

Although he has only allowed three runs in 11 innings in Korea...

I call it more of a built-in twitch, that it happened with Arrieta so now we're just worried it'll happen with everyone.

On the other hand, it worked for Britton and he stayed her and become a dominant closer for a few years.

The talent level is so high, that it doesnt take much tweaking for them to become dominant, or lose a hair of movement off their fastball and become hittable.

I'm pretty sure he did that sometimes with the Orioles, too.

I was actually wondering how Tyler Wilson was doing. Wright Stayed too long by far, but I wish him well. And I hope that when he wants to hammer his fist against the wall and frustration he continues to remember to make sure it’s padded first.

My friends and I have been following the LG Twins. 

They've got Hyun-soo Kim and Tyler Wilson.

Kim has been absolutely ballin out. He's batting .368 with a .989 OPS.

Tyler Wilson (their highest paid player) not so much.  He's got a 5.71 ERA through 17.1 IP.

Tyler Wilson was pretty good in the KBO the last two years, a little rough start so far this year:  https://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.fcgi?id=wilson005phi

He and Casey Kelly were clearly the best starters on a 79-64 team last year.
