Wright (shoulder) will pitch a live batting practice session sometime late next week, Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

He suffered his shoulder injury in August and only pitched in two more games before missing the rest of the season. The knuckleballer sparkled last year with a 3.33 ERA in 156.2 innings but will be hard-pressed to repeat it. AL-only players should bid carefully, considering he still hasn't cemented a rotation job even if healthy.
