Wright (9-4) earned the win Wednesday over the Phillies. He allowed a run on three hits and three walks with four strikeouts over seven innings. Wright was a bit shaky in his last two starts, but he returned to strong pitching Wednesday. His lone mistake was a solo home run to Rhys Hoskins in the third inning. Wright concludes June with 15 runs allowed in 38.1 innings, good for a 3.52 ERA. For the season, he's posted a 3.03 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 96:30 K:BB through 92 innings overall. He's projected for a home start versus the Cardinals next week.

Wright (8-4) allowed four earned runs on 10 hits and one walk while striking out four across 5.1 innings to earn the win Thursday against the Giants. Wright was in trouble throughout the game, though he induced a double play in each of the first four innings to get out of jams. However, that didn't happen in his final two frames when the Giants combined to score three runs. Wright has maintained a strong 3.18 ERA and 92:27 K:BB across 85 innings this season. However, he's allowed 21 hits and nine earned runs across his last two starts -- spanning 11.1 frames.

Wright (7-4) gave up five earned runs on 11 hits and one walk while striking out eight in six innings Saturday against the Cubs. He took the loss. The wind wasn't blowing significantly out in this one, and indeed, Wright didn't give up a home run, but the 11 hits allowed topped his previous season high of nine. Despite this shaky outing against an inferior opponent, Wright's season ERA still sits at 2.94. He tentatively lines up to start at home against the Giants next week.

Wright (7-3) yielded three runs on five hits and two walks over six innings Sunday, striking out seven and earning a win over the Pirates. Wright allowed just one run through four innings before serving up a two-run homer to Bryan Reynolds in the fifth. He's picked up a win in three straight outings while posting four consecutive quality starts; the 26-year-old is sporting a 2.70 ERA during that stretch. On the year, Wright owns a strong 80:25 K:BB with a 2.57 ERA through 73.2 frames. He's lined up to face the Cubs in Chicago next week.

Wright (6-3) earned the win Tuesday, allowing two runs on five hits and zero walks over eight innings against the Athletics. He struck out seven. It was another dominant outing for Wright, who threw 74 of 105 pitches for strikes in Tuesday's win. This was his third quality start in a row, and his fourth in the last five games. The young righty has been a pleasant surprise this year for both the Braves and fantasy managers and will take a 2.39 ERA into his next outing.
