By Roch Kubatko
WASHINGTON - The Orioles have recalled Mike Wright from Triple-A Norfolk to replace Chris Tillman on the 25-man roster.
Tillman has been placed on the disabled list retroactive to Sunday with right shoulder bursitis.
Wright is available tonight in the bullpen while Wade Miley starts for the Orioles. He hasn't pitched since Friday night, when he allowed one run and seven hits in five innings in Durham.
Wright, 26, went 3-3 with a 3.17 ERA in 11 starts with the Tides this season. He's 3-4 with a 5.97 ERA in 14 games (12 starts) with the Orioles this season.
In his last appearance with the Orioles on July 8, Wright allowed two earned runs (four total) and three hits in 4 2/3 relief innings against the Angels.
Wright is 6-9 with a 6.00 in 26 career major league games, including 21 starts.
Tillman is eligible to come off the disabled list on Sept. 5.
