Won't return to rotation Padres manager Jayce Tingler suggested Wednesday that Richards will remain in the bullpen regardless of the status of injured starter Mike Clevinger (biceps), Jeff Sanders of The S...

Impact Clevinger was pulled due to a recurrence of biceps tightness after only one inning Wednesday, putting his postseason availability in doubt and potentially opening up a spot in the rotation. Despite the possible need for a replacement starter, Tingler suggested that the team's plan for Richards to pitch out of the bullpen will remain unchanged. The comment is somewhat surprising given Richards' general effectiveness as a starter this season; he gave up three earned runs or fewer in seven of his 10 starts.

Shifting to bullpen Richards will work out of the bullpen for the final stretch of the regular season, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact The right-hander worked as a reliever during Wednesday's loss to the Dodgers, allowing a solo homer with one strikeout and one walk over one inning. The Padres have three scheduled off days over the final 11 days of the season, so the team won't require a fifth starter until the playoffs. Richards could rejoin the rotation during the final weekend series, depending how the Friars want to structure the rotation entering the playoffs.

Pitches well in no-decision Richards allowed a run on two hits and two walks and struck out three over 4.1 innings in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Giants. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Richards allowed an RBI dounle to Mike Yastrzemski in the second inning, but that was the only damage on his line. Unfortunately, the Padres' offense didn't produce enough to put Richards in position for a win. The 32-year-old lowered his ERA to 4.27 with a 1.29 WHIP and 41 strikeouts in 46.1 innings this season. Richards is expected to face the Mariners on Saturday in his next start.

Starting Sunday's nightcap Richards will start Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Giants.

Impact The 32-year-old was originally slated to start Friday's contest, but the first two games of the series were postponed after the Giants produced a positive test for COVID-19, which has since been determined to have been a false positive. Mike Clevinger will start the matinee for the Friars.

Scheduled start postponed Richards' start scheduled for Friday was postponed after a player for the Giants tested positive for COVID-19.

Impact Friday's game was called off just before the first pitch due to the positive COVID-19 test. Contact tracing hasn't been done yet, and it's unclear how the postponement will impact the Padres' schedule going forward.

Fans nine in win Richards (2-2) allowed three runs on seven hits and struck out nine in seven innings in Sunday's win over the Athletics.

Impact Richards had allowed a combined seven runs over 6.1 innings in his last three starts, but he was able to quiet the Athletics' bats quite well Sunday. Only two of the seven hits he allowed went for extra bases, including Sean Murphy's seventh-inning solo shot. Richards now has a 4.50 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 38 strikeouts across 42 innings this season. The 32-year-old's next turn on the mound is expected to be Friday versus the Giants.

Another short start Richards didn't factor into the decision in Monday's game between the Padres and the Rockies. He tossed 3.2 scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out four.

Impact Richards was coming off back-to-back short outings and, while he was able to pitch into the fourth in this one, he left the contest still one out away from completing four innings. This was a bounce-back performance from the veteran, who was coming off a disastrous outing against the Mariners -- six runs in two-thirds of an inning -- his last time out.

Named starter for Monday Richards will start Monday's game against the Rockies, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Impact Richards has had back-to-back short starts, with his most recent outing coming Thursday against the Mariners. During that appearance, he gave up six runs on four hits and two walks while striking out zero over two-thirds of an inning as he was charged with the loss. The brevity of Richards' recent appearances will allow him to start Monday at Coors Field on short rest as he attempts to turn things around.

Lit up in nightcap Richards (1-2) took the loss in Game 2 of Thursday's doubleheader against Seattle, pitching two-thirds of an inning and allowing six runs on four hits and two walks.

Impact Richards struggled with both his control and command in the contest, throwing only 17 of 33 pitches for strikes and getting knocked around for a pair of home runs. It was the second short start in row for the right-hander, who lasted only two innings in his previous outing while also struggling to locate pitches in the strike zone. Richards will try to turn things around when he faces the Angels in a road tilt Thursday.
