Newsbreakers
September 1, 2009
The Houston Chronicle reports that the Astros have activated reliever Wesley Wright from the 15-day disabled list.
Our View:
Wright landed on the DL with dehydration in late July after being rushed to the hospital. He will add depth to the struggling Astros bullpen.
July 29, 2009
According to the Miami Herald, Astros' reliever Wesley Wright was rushed to the hospital on Tuesday night due to dehydration.
Our View:
The team initially thought Wright was suffering from appendicitis (due to similar symptoms) when he complained of sharp stomach pain after tossing 2.1 innings on Tuesday. Turns out he was just dehydrated and is set to be discharged Wednesday. He should be back after a few days of rest.
July 16, 2009
Updating a previous report, the Astros have officially recalled relief pitcher Wesley Wright from Triple-A Round Rock, according to the Twitter page of Astros' writer Alyson Footer.
Our View:
Wright is the corresponding move to the demotion of Felipe Paulino, and he will join the Astros' bullpen again. He is 1-1 with the team this season, and he is sporting an 8.31 ERA in 8.2 innings. He should not be considered in any fantasy format.
July 15, 2009
Wesley Wright is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Round Rock Thursday, according to Alyson Footer's twitter page.
Our View:
Wright will serve as a middle reliever out of the Astros' bullpen, and his fantasy value is limited.
June 17, 2009
Wesley Wright is being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock to take the roster spot of the injured Mike Hampton.
Our View:
He is 1-1 with a 7.24 ERA in 19 appearances this season. He is not a fantasy option.
June 13, 2009
Wesley Wright has been optioned to Triple-A Round Rock by the Astros, according to the Associated Press. The club activated closer Jose Valverde from the DL as the corresponding move.
Our View:
Wright has a 7.24 ERA over 13.2 innings this season, and the reliever did not hold much fantasy value during his time with the Astros.
June 11, 2009
Wesley Wright has been recalled by the Astros from Triple-A Round Rock, according to the Associated Press. Felipe Paulino (strained groin) was placed on the DL as the corresponding move.
Our View:
Wright has a 7.24 ERA over 13.2 innings this season, and won't hold much fantasy value as a middle reliever during his latest stint with the club.
May 28, 2009
As expected, Wesley Wright has been optioned to Triple-A Round Rock by the Astros to make room for Brandon Backe on the roster, according to the Houston Chronicle.
Our View:
Wright struggled this season with a 7.24 ERA and 2.12 WHIP over 13.2 innings of relief, and was viewed as the most expendable to demote. He fired 15 strikeouts, but should not be missed in fantasy leagues while working on his skills in the minors.
May 27, 2009
As expected, the Astros will demote reliever Wesley Wright to Triple-A to make room for Brandon Backe, according to MLB.com.
Our View:
Wright is 1-1 with a 7.24 ERA over 19 appearances this season. Wright was solid last year, but has struggled in 2009 and the Astros think he will improve if he has a chance to pitch multiple innings. He'll get that opportunity in Triple-A.
February 11, 2009
Houston pitcher Wesley Wright signed a one-year deal with the club for $425,000, and hurlers Sammy Gervacio and Polin Trinidad signed one-year deals for $400,000, reports the Houston Chronicle.
Our View:
Wright was the team's rookie of the year last season as a reliever, throwing 55.2 innings with a 5.01 ERA and 1.42 WHIP, which says a lot about the Astros' season.
