Kyle Wright Traded To Royals

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kyle Wright (shoulder) has been traded to the Kansas City Royals on Friday. This is an interesting move considering Wright is expected to miss the entire 2024 campaign while recovering from shoulder surgery. When healthy, Wright has normally been a viable option, so the Royals are banking on his long term potential. In exchange for Wright, the Royals sent right-hander Jackson Kowar over to Atlanta. This trade won't have much of an impact on fantasy baseball this upcoming season. Both pitchers probably won't contribute much on their new teams in 2024.

Oct 7 · MLB Trade Rumors Atlanta Braves Kyle WrightKyle Wright Placed On The 60-Day Injured List

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Kyle Wright (shoulder) has been placed on the 60-day injured list with a right shoulder strain. The 28-year-old has been dealing with shoulder issues for quite some time and it hampered his production in 2023. He obviously won't pitch in the playoffs now so more pressure will be placed on young arms Bryce Elder and A.J. Smith-Shawver to help carry the load. Wright put up a lackluster 6.97 ERA, 1.839 WHIP, and 34:17 K/BB ratio over 31 innings (nine appearances, seven starts).
