EDGE Analysis

Wright showcased significant improvement in his second start, limiting the Royals to two runs before exiting the game in the sixth inning. However, 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.
