2018 Atlanta Braves Player Review: Kyle Wright

The Braves’ top draft pick in 2017 took a huge step forward as he was completely unleashed in 2018 and pitched with absolute confidence. Kyle Wright seemingly made quick work of the minors as he ascended from High-A in 2017 to begin the season at Double-A in 2018. In Mississippi, Wright went 6-8 with a 3.70 ERA, 8.6 K/9, and 3.5 BB/9 and 1.335 WHIP. After 20 starts, Kyle was promoted to Gwinnett where he was even more dynamic in seven games, compiling a 2.51 ERA, 8.8 K/9, and reducinghis walks to just 2.
