Fantasy Impact:

Richardson, a former second-round pick out of high school by the Reds in the 2018 MLB Draft, appeared in 39 games with Cincinnati from 2023-25. The righthander has pitched to a 6.05 career ERA in 55 innings at the big league level. Command has been an issue for Richardson as he has allowed 37 walks in those 55 innings. He has, however, averaged more than a strikeout per inning in his six minor league seasons.
