Joining big club The Reds recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.

Impact With Ian Gibaut (shoulder) bound for the injured list, Richardson will come up from Triple-A to help bolster Cincinnati's bullpen depth. The 25-year-old righty owns a 4.15 ERA and 1.08 WHIP through 13 innings at Louisville this season, but he'll likely be limited to low-leverage situations, given his career 9.35 ERA in the majors.

Optioned to Triple-A The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

MARCH 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Knocked around in exhibition Richardson (undisclosed) allowed two runs on two hits and struck out one over one inning during Saturday's Cactus League game against the Brewers.

Impact Richardson has returned to health after an unspecified injury sidelined him near the end of the 2024 season. This wasn't a great start to camp for someone who is competing for a big-league roster spot, though he should get a few more opportunities to show what he can do.

FEBRUARY 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Goes on Triple-A IL Richardson was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Louisville on Monday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact It's not clear what injury the right-hander is dealing with or how long he might be sidelined. Richardson has spent most of the season in Louisville's rotation but had been used in long relief there for his last three appearances, allowing five runs over eight frames.

AUGUST 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Heads back to minors The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday.

JULY 31, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back in majors The Reds recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Richardson is a good bet to handle bulk-relief duty following opener Tony Santillan in Tuesday's game versus the Cubs. The right-hander was up briefly with the Reds last week but did not make an appearance. He's posted a 4.48 ERA and 82:54 K:BB over 88.1 frames with Louisville this season.

Impact Richardson did not make an appearance during his brief time in the majors this week. The right-hander will now slide back into the Louisville rotation.

JULY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back as 27th man The Reds recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Impact Richardson was recalled Tuesday prior to that game being rained out and was optioned following the postponement. However, he never actually left the club and now is back to serve as the 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader in Atlanta. Richardson is a good bet to eat some innings after Nick Martinez in the second game before being sent back to Louisville.

JULY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to Louisville The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

Impact Richardson was recalled earlier Tuesday to give the Reds some depth in the bullpen while Nick Martinez started. However, Tuesday's contest was postponed due to rain, so Richardson will now head back to the minors without appearing in a game. The 24-year-old owns a 4.29 ERA and 1.52 WHIP across 77.2 innings in Triple-A and could still be an option to make a spot start in the majors later in the year.

JULY 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Summoned from minors The Reds recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

Impact Nick Martinez is starting Tuesday's game in Atlanta after a couple months pitching as a reliever, so Richardson will give the club some length in the bullpen. Richardson has posted a 4.43 ERA and 76:52 K:BB over 83.1 innings covering 19 appearances (18 starts) with Louisville in 2024.

JULY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minors Richardson was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

Impact The 23-year-old started for the past few turns through Cincinnati's rotation, but he'll head back to Triple-A after he posted a 7.90 ERA, 1.83 WHIP and 10:12 K:BB across 13.2 innings. Richardson should return to the rotation at Louisville, where he has a 3.60 ERA in three starts.

Sunk by Mariners Richardson (0-2) took the loss Wednesday as the Reds were downed 8-4 by the Mariners, surrendering seven runs on seven hits -- including three home runs -- and four walks over 4.2...

Impact The rookie right-hander wasn't fooling anyone, serving up long balls to Mike Ford, J.P. Crawford and Cal Raleigh and managing only seven swinging strikes among his 95 pitches. Richardson has yet to last five innings in any of his four big-league starts, but with three-fifths of the Reds' already patchwork rotation currently stuck in the COVID-19 protocols, the team doesn't have many other options to send to the mound. If he makes another start, Richardson's next turn would come on the road next week in Detroit.
