The Orioles’ pitching staff continued to take shape Thursday as manager Buck Showalter announced that right-hander Mike Wright will start the fourth game of the season and fellow pitching prospect Tyler Wilson also made the team.
“Mike won the job,” Showalter said. “Mike pitched well this spring, and had a great year last year in Triple-A. It’s his time. I don’t know how much simpler you can make it.”
The team had already announced that right-handers Yovani Gallardo and Ubaldo Jimenez would follow Opening Day starter Chris Tillman.
