Fantasy Impact:

The Mets placed Wright on the 15-day DL in the middle of April, but that was due to a hamstring injury. The veteran is said be recovering well from that ailment, but he's now dealing with a new one. Considering Wright's age, and the fact that he's dealing with injuries to his hamstring and back, the news is certainly concerning for fantasy owners.
