Wright allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out two in 6.1 innings to pick up the win Saturday against the Angels. Wright, who gave up both runs and three of his four hits allowed in the first inning, said the adrenaline flowing and couldn't establish a consistent release point early on. But he settled in after that, retiring 18 of the next 19 batters faced. In four starts, Wright's been effective enough to retain a spot in the rotation, but his fate depends on how the team wants to handle the eventual return of Justin Masterson.

Wright took the loss on Sunday as he gave up two runs on five hits and a walk through five innings against the Mariners. The 30-year-old was making his third start of the season with Justin Masterson injured and has been unimpressive thus far, with a 4.02 ERA through 15.2 innings. Wright will stick in the rotation for the time being and is next scheduled to start against the Angels on Saturday.

Wright will start for the Red Sox Sunday against the Mariners, Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald reports. Wright was considered the favorite to take over in the rotation following Justin Masterson's arm injury, and that's now confirmed to be the case. Following four starts with Triple-A Pawtucket, Wright was promoted into a long relief role for the Red Sox, and pitched 10.2 innings in two appearances, allowing five runs on 12 hits and six walks. He won't miss a ton of bats, but has shown the ability to sit batters down the last couple seasons.

Wright is the likely choice to take Justin Masterson's next turn in the rotation Sunday in Seattle, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports. After tossing 5.2 scoreless innings out of the bullpen in relief of Masterson on Tuesday night, Wright is stretched out enough to replace him for at least one start until the Red Sox can re-arrange a minor league starter (perhaps Eduardo Rodriguez) to step in if Masterson does in fact land on the disabled list.

Wright threw 5.2 innings of relief in Tuesday night's loss to the Athletics. He allowed three runs on six hits and three walks while striking out four in relief of Justin Masterson, who lasted just 2.1 innings. Red Sox manager John Farrell will not commit to Masterson making his next start, opening the window for Wright to get a start. Masterson will undergo some medical tests between now and his next scheduled start.

Wright was recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket on Sunday, Peter Abraham of the Boston Globe reports. Wright will probably only serve as a long man out of the bullpen for the time being, but a move to the rotation shouldn't be entirely dismissed. Four of the Red Sox's starters (Clay Buchholz, Joe Kelly, Justin Masterson, and Wade Miley) have ERAs of 5.00 or above, which could prompt manager John Farrell to shake things up at some point.

Wright allowed one run on three hits and three walks while striking out seven in seven innings for Triple-A Pawtucket. He's thrown at least six innings and passed the 100-pitch mark in three straight starts. Wright has pitched deep into games, something Boston's starting staff has not been doing on a regular basis. If the Red Sox consider any changes to their staff, Wright might be the first one who gets an opportunity to start in Boston.

Wright was optioned to Triple-A Pawtucket on Tuesday, Pete Abraham of the Boston Globe reports. Wright's latest stint in the majors only lasted one day, and he didn't get the opportunity to make an appearance. His demotion creates room on the 25-man roster for Jackie Bradley, as the Red Sox are opting for extra outfield depth over bullpen depth.

Wright was recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket on Monday. Wright already had a brief stint in the big leagues this season, earning the win as he tossed five innings of relief work in his lone outing. Heath Hembree was optioned to make room on the roster as Wright figures to serve as a long relief option out of the bullpen.

Wright made his first start Thursday for Triple-A Pawtucket since being sent down and allowed seven runs (three earned) on eight hits and four walks while striking out two in five innings. Wright's name should be in the back of your mind. Boston's starting staff has been rocked this week -- three of the last four starters have allowed at lease seven runs -- which has led to speculation about having an innings-eating long reliever on staff.
