Clayton Richard News
The Chicago White Sox have signed pitcher Clayton Richard to a minor league deal. This will be the leftys second stint with the White Sox. Richard spent appeared in 10 games with the Toronto Blue Jays in 2019, but was released after posting a 1-5 record to go along with a 5.96 ERA. The lefty has pitched as both a starter and reliever throughout his career and will operate as organizational depth for his new club. He can be avoided across fantasy formats.
Toronto Blue Jays starter Clayton Richard has been released by the team on Thursday. The 36-year-old made 10 starts with the Blue Jays this season, producing a record of 1-5 to go along with a 5.96 ERA and 22 strikeouts through 45 1/3 innings. Richard did not appear in a game with the team since landing on the 10-day injured list with a left lat strain in mid July. The 36-year-old is not someone worth monitoring across any fantasy formats in the future.
The Toronto Blue Jays placed starting pitcher Clayton Richard (lat) on the injured list on Sunday for the second time this year. The veteran left-hander left his start early on Saturday against the Yankees after suffering a left lat strain. There is no timetable for the 35-year-old's return, but lat strains can often keep pitchers out for a month or more, so don't expect him back anytime soon. Jacob Waguespack and Sean Reid-Foley are candidates to start next Tuesday and Thursday, respectively. Richard has posted a weak 5.96 ERA over 45 1/3 innings (10 starts) with 18 walks and 22 strikeouts this year and can continue to be left to the waiver wire. Edwin Jackson will rejoin the team's bullpen with Richard on the shelf, but he can be ignored everywhere as well.
