Wright (back) went 2-for-3 with two singles and a run scored in his spring debut Friday. "It was a good test right out of the gate," Wright told MLB.com. "Maybe not ideal, but I'm glad that I passed. I probably felt like I was moving a lot faster than I was. I'm glad I could check that off the list. I got three at-bats, got a play at third, ran the bases, so it was a good day."
EDGE Analysis
The Mets have brought Wright along slowly in camp, and will limit his workload during the season (130 games maximum) in hopes of avoiding any extended absences. Wright will not play in any road games this spring, as the long bus rides can be bad for his back, but the plan is for him to play in eight home exhibitions and some more minor league games to prepare for Opening Day.
