Reds' Lyon Richardson: Goes on Triple-A IL
Triple-A Louisville placed Richardson on the 7-day injured list Sunday.
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 in each of his last three appearances, allowing five runs over eight frames.

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

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Optioned to Triple-A
The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.
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, where he has a 4.29 ERA and 1.52 WHIP over 77.2 innings this season.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Back as 27th man
The Reds recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Richardson was recalled ahead of Tuesday's game against Atlanta before being optioned to Triple-A after the contest was postponed. However, he never actually left the club and now will be temporarily added back to the active roster 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 of the twin bill before the Reds send him back to Louisville.

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

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

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Optioned to Triple-A
The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Saturday.
Richardson split his time last season between Triple-A and the majors. He spent the end of 2023 in the minors after posting an 8.64 ERA, 1.92 WHIP and 12:15 K:BB over 16.2 innings with the Reds. Richardson will start 2024 in Louisville and will attempt to work his way back into Cincinnati's rotation.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Sent to minors
Richardson was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.
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.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: 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 innings. He struck out three.
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.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Recalled for start Wednesday
Cincinnati recalled Richardson from Triple-A Louisville ahead of his scheduled start Wednesday versus the Mariners.
Richardson is enjoying a breakout 2023 season in the minors, but the 23-year-old right-hander has surrendered nine earned runs on 10 hits and 11 walks through his first three major-league starts covering just 12 innings. He's a risky fantasy streamer against Seattle.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Sent down to minors
Richardson was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Monday, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Because Richardson was technically called up from Louisville on Friday to replace a player on the COVID-19-related injured list, he can be recalled at any time. With that in mind, the Reds could stick with their initial plan to have Richardson start Wednesday against the Mariners. In 12 innings in the big leagues this season, Richardson has struck out nine and has given up nine earned runs on 10 hits and 11 walks.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Nabs another start
Richardson is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Mariners in Cincinnati, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Richardson hasn't been especially impressive over three starts in the big leagues this season (6.75 ERA, 1.75 WHIP and 9:11 K:BB in 12 innings), but he'll get another turn through the rotation this week after the Reds recently moved Graham Ashcraft (toe) to the 15-day injured list and placed three others (Hunter Greene, Brandon Williamson and Ben Lively) on the COVID-19-related IL. Greene, Lively and Williamson are all eligible to return by next weekend, so Richardson could end up losing his starting role following Wednesday's outing.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Recalled for Friday start
Richardson was recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Friday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
With Ben Lively -- who was originally scheduled to start the second game of Friday's doubleheader -- landing on the COVID-19 IL, Richardson will come up from Louisville to pitch in his place. The 23-year-old righty has surrendered seven runs in 7.1 innings through two starts in the majors this season.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: No-decision in nightcap
Richardson came away with a no-decision in the second game of Friday's doubleheader against the Cubs, giving up two runs on two hits and five walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out four.
Promoted earlier in the day to take the place of Ben Lively (COVID-19), Richardson struggled to find the plate and tossed only 51 of his 91 pitches for strikes. He exited the game in line for the loss, but the Reds rallied for two runs in the ninth to secure a 3-2 victory. The 23-year-old has a 9:11 K:BB through 12 innings in the majors this season, and it's not clear if he'll even remain in the big-league bullpen when Lively is ready to return.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Returns to Triple-A
The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Friday.
As anticipated, Richardson was with the Reds for only a brief period of time after he was called up from Louisville on Wednesday and designated as the club's 27th man for the doubleheader with the Angels. Richardson ended up drawing the start in the second game of the twin bill, giving up three runs on four hits and three walks over 4.1 innings while not factoring into the decision in the Reds' 7-3 victory.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Mediocre in spot start
Richardson allowed three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three over 4.1 innings in a no-decision against the Angels in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader.
Richardson was recalled from Triple-A Louisville as the 27th man for the doubleheader, so it's unclear if his stay on the major-league roster will last beyond Wednesday. He didn't do much to make a case for himself in a poor spot start. The right-hander threw 45 of 79 pitches for strikes in the outing, his second in the majors this year. He's allowed seven runs over 7.1 innings with a 5:6 K:BB in those appearances.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Up as 27th man
Richardson was recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Wednesday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Richardson will serve as the 27th man for the Reds in Wednesday's doubleheader against the Angels. All 22 of the 23-year-old's appearances this season between the majors and minors have been as a starter, so he should be able to handle a lengthy relief outing, if needed. The Reds aren't yet listing a starter for the second game of the twin bill and could turn to either Richardson or Brett Kennedy to fill the opening.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Optioned to Triple-A
Richardson was optioned to Triple-A Louisville on Monday.
Richardson was called up from Louisville to make his big-league debut Sunday, but he was dealt the loss after giving up four earned runs on four hits and three walks over three innings. The performance wasn't enough for him to stake a claim to a permanent spot in the Cincinnati rotation, but he could, however, return to the majors before the season comes to a close. Cincinnati called up right-hander Brett Kennedy from Louisville in a corresponding move.

Reds' Lyon Richardson: Suffers defeat in debut
Richardson (0-1) took the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on four hits and three walks over three innings against the Nationals. He struck out two.
Following a four-run first inning that included seeing his first two career pitches hit out of the yard, Richardson settled down in the next two frames but was pulled after 66 pitches. That number represents 17 more pitches than he had thrown in any start for the organization since May as he continues to work his way back from a lost 2022 due to Tommy John surgery. It is possible the 23-year-old prospect remains in the Reds rotation for now, but he's highly likely to have his pitch count remain limited moving forward.
