Wright (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Friday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's his first time throwing off a mound since he suffered a right shoulder strain back in early May. Wright remains optimistic an early September return to Atlanta's rotation is possible, but a firm date for his activation won't become clear until he's ready for a rehab assignment.

Wright (shoulder) is not expected to be an option for Atlanta until early September, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sometime in August had been viewed as a rough timetable for the right-hander, but it's going to be a bit longer than that. Wright hasn't had a setback, but the club just wants to be extra cautious as he works his way back from a right shoulder strain. Wright is expected to begin throwing shortened bullpen sessions early next week and then regular bullpen sessions by the end of next week.

Wright (shoulder) is close to being cleared to throw off a mound, Grant McAuley of 92.9 FM The Game reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright has been sidelined for two months with a strained right shoulder but has been doing flat-ground throwing for the past month. He figures to need multiple bullpen sessions before facing hitters at least a couple times and eventually going out on a rehab assignment, so there's still plenty of work to be done. Still, progressing to mound work is certainly a major step.

Wright (shoulder) was cleared to begin a throwing program Thursday, Gabe Burns of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wright was placed on the injured list in early May because of a shoulder strain and is likely to remain sidelined until after the All-Star break, but he can begin building up this week with flat-ground work. That will eventually morph into bullpen sessions and then live batting practice, with a minor-league rehab assignment to follow. If all goes smoothly, the 27-year-old right-hander could return to Atlanta's starting rotation in about four weeks.

Atlanta transferred Wright (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Shortly after landing on the 15-day IL earlier this month for the second time this season on account of a right shoulder strain, Wright disclosed that he expected to be out of commission for at least two months, so his move to the 60-day IL isn't overly surprising. The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Dereck Rodriguez, whom Atlanta claimed off waivers from Minnesota in a corresponding move. A clearer timeline for Wright's return likely won't be available until he resumes a throwing program, but fantasy players should proceed as though he'll be sidelined through the All-Star break.

Wright (shoulder) said Wednesday that he expects to be sidelined at least two months, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Max Fried (forearm) is also expected to miss at least two months, but Wright indicated that his absence could be even longer because his right shoulder strain is a recurrence of a previous injury. He will remain shut down until the shoulder fully heals before slowly ramping things back up. Fantasy managers probably shouldn't count on Wright returning until after the All-Star break.

An MRI taken Friday on Wright's shoulder revealed a shoulder strain, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The bad news is that Wright does have the strain revealed after being placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday with his shoulder trouble, and there's no timetable for the right-hander to return. The good news is there's no further structural damage, so it doesn't appear this will be something could end the 27-year-old's campaign. That being said, Wright will miss at least the next two weeks, and it's very possible this injury could carry into June or further.

Atlanta placed Wright on the 15-day injured list Thursday with right shoulder inflammation.

EDGE Analysis

Wright will return to the IL for the second time in 2023 on account of a right shoulder issue, as he was previously excluded from Atlanta's season-opening rotation when he was delayed during spring training after battling shoulder soreness during his offseason throwing program. He lasted just two innings in his start Wednesday against the Marlins before succumbing to shoulder inflammation. Atlanta could put Wright through more testing to determine if he's dealing with anything more significant than swelling in the shoulder, but at least for the time being, he'll be in line to miss at least the next two weeks. The big club recalled Dylan Dodd from Triple-A Gwinnett to fill Wright's spot in the rotation beginning with Thursday's series finale in Miami.

Wright will be placed on the 15-day injured list after injuring his right shoulder Wednesday, Paige Leckie of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This already marks the second time this season Wright has landed on the IL due to soreness in his right shoulder. He received a cortisone injection in January during his first battle with shoulder issues and ended up missing two turns through the rotation to start the year.

Wright left Wednesday's game against the Marlins due to right shoulder soreness.

EDGE Analysis

A sore right shoulder kept Wright on the injured list to start the season, and it now seems the problem has returned. It's uncertain whether he will require another stint on the IL, but Wright's right shoulder is quickly starting to become a concern for fantasy managers.
