		Wright wouldn't be too difficult to land as a free agent once the Yankees decline his option, so the Orioles would be foolish to give up anyone significant unless the Yankees are paying the vast majority of his salary.

		Wright’s $7 million option has been picked up by the Yankees and the Orioles will be on the hook for $3 million through the 2007 season.

		Jaret Wright may yet be one of those reclamation projects that has made Leo Mazzone the most famous pitching coach in baseball, but Wright now has to be worth five years of Chris Britton.

	MLB Insider...Aug 18: Moorad move raising many issues; Jaret Wright; Charles Johnson - SOHH.com Global Forum (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Wright was pitching well -- he wound up striking out 21 hitters in 19 innings with the Beavers -- and Portland broadcaster Rich Burk told me that Wright's success was due in part to a splitter that he'd recently picked up.
		Wright was recalled by the Padres on July 18 -- he'd opened the season with the big club, but got sent down in early June -- and got hammered again.
		If the Padres had Jaret Wright -- and, it should be said, if they had Leo Mazzone -- they probably would lead the wild-card race by a few games.

	Roch Around the Clock: More on Jaret Wright (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Wright is projected as a back-of-the-rotation starter, but the Orioles see him having the talent to move up.
		Wright is not a bad gamble as far as restoration projects go, and we dealt from a surplus (middle relief pitchers that have not yet proven themselves to be consistently effective).
		Now, if Wright breaks down, then you can still argue that it was worth the risk as he appeared to be in very good shape at the end of the year and all pitchers (including Britton) run the risk of injury.

	Sinking feeling about Jaret Wright - NYYFans.com Yankees Message Board
		I believe their momentum from last season could only push them farther, although I won't say that Jaret Wright will eat innings to make way for the pen, I do believe he will be an effective pitcher.
		The Yankees have drawn criticism within the industry for signing free-agent RHP Jaret Wright to a three-year, $21 million contract, but his former pitching coach with the Braves, Leo Mazzone, believes Wright will build on 2004, when he went 15-8 with a 3.28 ERA.
		I think Pavano, while effective, was overpaid and as it turns out necessary, and I have legitimate concerns about Jaret Wright (though I don't recall at any point indicating that our season hangs in the balance of a fourth starter.) I hardly think that qualifies as bridge-jumping, but..

	Jaret Wright - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jaret Samuel Wright (born December 29, 1975 in Anaheim, California) is a starting pitcher in Major League Baseball who currently plays for the Baltimore Orioles.
		He is the son of former major league pitcher Clyde Wright.
		Wright started 2004 in the minors to build up arm strength, but was called up by the Braves when it was discovered pitcher Paul Byrd needed more time to rehab his arm (he had missed the entire 2003 season due to Tommy John surgery).

		I like Jaret, I thought he was a gamer, I wish him well and hope he does excellent against everybody but us.
		I know that some people will say that the yankees, having lost out on Matsuzaka, should've kept Wright, but the fact is, the yankees have minor league depth (especially with the recent trades), and that is what it allows you to do.
		Its not only moving past the Wright mediocrity, replacing Wright's performance with a pitcher who can perform at the same or higher level at a fraction of the price.

		Wright left Atlanta for the Yankees and the heavy-hitting AL East, and his time in New York has been a complete disaster, as he went 5-5 with a 6.08 ERA in 2005, and 11-7 with a 4.49 ERA in 2006, after signing a three-year deal with New York for $21 million.
		Wright had one fluke season, and the Yankees jumped on the bandwagon.
