San Diego Padres starter Garrett Richards managed just two outs Thursday against the Seattle Mariners, getting hammered for six earned runs. Richards allowed six of the first eight batters to reach base, ultimately serving up a grand slam and subsequent home run before being pulled. Thursday’s debacle was Richards’ second consecutive clunker after he completed just two frames in his prior outing. The 32-year-old stares at a disappointing 5.17 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 7.2 K/9 through seven starts. At best, he’s a matchup-based fantasy streamer until he shows some consistency.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller

Texas Rangers pitcher Garrett Richards (finger) will open the 2022 season on the injured list due to a blister on his middle finger. The 33-year-old signed with the Rangers in March. He spent the 2021 season with the Boston Red Sox and went 7-8 with a 4.87 ERA and a 1.595 WHIP. He allowed a 47.8% hard-hit rate on the year, which ranked in the bottom 1% of the league. He also ranked in the bottom 10% of the league in xERA (5.58) and average exit velocity (91.1 mph). Richards has a shot at seeing some time in the Rangers rotation this year, but he'll need to work out some kinks in order to have success on the mound.--Andrew Ericksen - RotoBaller

Free-agent right-hander Garrett Richards signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Texas Rangers on Thursday. The deal includes an option for the 2023 season. Richards was with the Boston Red Sox last season, posting a 4.87 ERA, 1.59 WHIP, three saves, 115 strikeouts and 60 walks in 40 appearances (22 starts) over 136 2/3 innings pitched. He began the season in the starting rotation before being moved to the bullpen when he wasn't effective. The 33-year-old is expected to serve in a multi-inning relief role in Texas, which won't make him attractive in fantasy circles. There's a chance that Richards eventually moves back into a starting role, but until that happens, you can ignore him.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Boston Red Sox declined their club options on right-hander Garrett Richards ($10 million) and left-hander Martin Perez ($6 million) on Sunday, making them both free agents. Both pitchers started the year in Boston's rotation but ended the season pitching in relief. Richards will receive a $1.5 million buyout, while Perez receives a $500,000 buyout. Richards, 34, was 7-8 on the season with a 4.87 ERA in 40 outings (22 starts) for Boston in 2021. Perez also went 7-8 with a 4.74 ERA in 36 appearances (22 starts) for the BoSox during the regular season. While one or both of them could get some consideration in starting roles on the free-agent market, neither of them will be very attractive fantasy options in deeper leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes replaced Garrett Richards (hamstring) on the playoff roster after Richards suffered a hamstring strain during his daily conditioning routine. Barnes threw an inning in Friday's Game 2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, allowing a hit and two walks and striking out one batter. Manager Alex Cora bemoaned the heavy early season workload for Barnes, but Boston has little choice but to count on him for the rest of this series at least. Richards will not be eligible to return to the roster until the World Series, should Boston advance that far.--Doug Goldring
