Orioles' Mike Wright Jr.: Shaky ending to Saturday's start 'doesn't help' rotation case

Orioles right-hander Mike Wright Jr. knows someone in his position — out of minor league options and on the roster bubble entering the last week of spring training — doesn't have the luxury of using spring training just to get ready for the season.

He needs results, and after the fifth inning got away from him Saturday, he didn't leave the game against the Toronto Blue Jays with good ones.

"It doesn't help, that's for sure," Wright said after allowing four runs on nine hits in 4 2/3 innings.
