Wright was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander was hit hard in Wednesday's loss to the Mets, as he gave up five runs on four hits and three walks while striking out one in two innings. Max Fried (finger) is expected to return from the 10-day injured list next week, so Wright will head back to the minors. Right-hander Jesse Chavez's contract was selected as part of a corresponding move.
