Lyon

Richardson

Richardson was designated for assignment in the middle of August but ultimately re-signed with the Brewers. He has a 6.48 ERA, 1.68 WHIP, and a 47/40 K/BB ratio over 58 1/3 innings in 42 career appearances at the MLB level.

Richardson elected free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Nashville, but the two sides were ultimately able to come together on an accord that made sense for both sides. The 26-year-old right-hander will continue to serve as extra bullpen depth.

The 26-year-old hurler was designated for assignment earlier in the week and went unclaimed. He then elected to hit the open market rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Nashville. Richardson holds a 6.48 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and a 47/40 K/BB ratio over 58 1/3 innings in 42 career appearances at the MLB level.

Richardson loses his spot with Milwaukee after tossing 1 2/3 scoreless frames in relief against the Padres on Monday night. The 26-year-old righty figures to pass through waivers unclaimed.

Richardson heads to the majors as Milwaukee continues to churn through low-leverage relievers. The 26-year-old signed a minor league pact with the Brewers after being cut loose by the division-rival Reds last month. He’ll operate in middle relief and can be safely ignored for fantasy purposes.

The 26-year-old hurler elected free agency last week after the Reds sent him outright to Triple-A Louisville. Richardson holds a 4.75 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and a 34/14 K/BB ratio over 30 1/3 innings at the Triple-A level this season. He’ll add extra bullpen depth for the Brewers.

He refused the assignment, becoming a free agent. The 26-year-old had a 4.54 ERA in 37 2/3 innings out of the Reds pen last year and was performing reasonably at Triple-A Louisville before a brief call-up to cover innings for Chase Burns’ illness. Richardson will likely catch on elsewhere in the next few days.

Richardson had a rough outing on Monday, allowing four runs on one hit with two walks and two strikeouts. That may have been his final outing as a member of the Reds. Richardson will likely clear waivers, and he can opt to re-sign with the Reds on a minor league deal if he wants.

Lyon Richardson draws the starting assignment to open a bullpen game for Cincinnati. Burns is expected to take the ball for Wednesday’s series finale after getting some extra time to rest and recover. The hard-throwing 23-year-old rookie struck out eight over 5 1/3 innings to pick up a win over the Mets his last time out. He’s compiled a stellar 1.96 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 72/20 K/BB ratio across 64 1/3 innings over 11 starts this season. Simply put, he’s one of the most electric young arms in baseball.

Richardson, 26, had a 4.54 ERA in 37 2/3 innings out of the Reds pen last year. He cleared waivers back in January, but he’s back now after compiling a 4.75 ERA and a 34/14 K/BB in 30 1/3 innings over 17 relief appearances and one start for Triple-A Louisville. He’ll work in middle relief.
