Rest-of-Season Projections
Released from minor-league deal
The Rangers released Wright on Tuesday, T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Wright, who signed a minor-league deal with the Rangers in January, failed to win a spot with the big club out of spring training and had spent the entire season with Triple-A Round Rock. The 32-year-old lefty was sporting a 4.88 ERA and 1.67 WHIP over 31.1 innings, and with a promotion to the Rangers not imminent, the organization decided it was best to cut Wright loose and open up more opportunities in the Round Rock bullpen for younger options.

Coming off an atrocious season with the Cubs, Wright didn't see much work in time split between the Angels' and Orioles' organizations, logging a total of just 31.2 innings. Wright showed promise after Baltimore released him in July, notching a 9.2 K/9 rate and a 1.42 ERA in 12 games at Triple-A Salt Lake, followed by a 3.38 ERA in eight games after he was called up in September. Wright may represent a capable arm if he is able to get work, but with Caesar Ramos and Jose Alvarez already in the pen, the Angels likely felt as though they didn't need another left-hander with moderate upside. It is unclear what role Wright will have next season if he is able to find a club to sign him, as his 7.1 innings of work at the big league level last season doesn't bode well for a heavy workload.
