right-hander Mike Wright felt shoulder pain after throwing a hard slider to slugger José Abreu on Wednesday night and is unavailable after two innings of work, manager Buck Showalter said Thursday.
“He had some shoulder soreness after the game last night, so we’ll see how that goes,” Showalter said. “That was a little bit alarming, because that was three days off. That’s one of the reasons I didn’t pitch him the day before. We’ll see how that is tomorrow. Dr. [Mike] Jacobs will see him tomorrow when we get back, see what we’re dealing with there.
