Wesley Wright Opening Day.pngManager Buck Showalter delivered the news following the Orioles’ 6-5 loss to the Yankees at Camden Yards.

Wright has made two appearances this season, allowing one run and two hits in 1 2/3 innings. He complained of sharp pain behind his shoulder after his most recent outing, alerting the club for the first time, and landed on the disabled list with a strained trapezius muscle.

Wright will head down to Sarasota to rest and begin rehabbing.

The Orioles signed Wright to a one-year, $1.7 million contract over the winter. They currently have two left-handers in their bullpen – closer Zach Britton and Brian Matusz.

The Orioles bullpen has been scored upon in all seven games this season, registering a 5.40 ERA.
