2024 Fantasy Outlook
Woods Richardson took a step backward last season at Triple-A with a 4.91 ERA and 7.6 K/9 along with an increased walk rate to 4.85 BB/9. He struggled in his one outing in the majors, giving up 5 runs in 4.2 innings. Woods Richardson doesn't have great velocity (low-to-mid 90s fastball) but has three quality off-speed pitches and displayed good control earlier in his minor league career. He's nominally in the fifth-starter competition this spring, but likely needs to prove himself again at Triple-A. Read Past Outlooks
Allows two homers in no-decision
Woods Richardson did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing three runs on three hits and two walks over 4.1 innings against the Astros. He struck out six.
ANALYSIS
Woods Richardson, a native of suburban Houston, was pulled after one out in the fifth prior to facing the top of the Astros lineup for the third time. It was not a bad outing for Woods Richardson, though he doubled his homers allowed for the season, allowing a solo homer to Victor Caratini in the second followed by a two-run blast by Alex Bregman in the third that accounted for each of his three runs allowed. Following a five-run blowup against Toronto on May 11, Woods Richardson had allowed only three runs over his previous three starts totaling 15 innings coming into the day. He still maintains a 3.05 ERA and 1.11 WHIP on the season. He's next slated to toe the rubber next weekend when the Twins travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Pirates.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to join rotation soon?
Woods Richardson could receive a look in Minnesota's rotation soon if Louie Varland's early-season struggles continue, per Dan Hayes of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Varland has an 8.36 ERA through three starts this season, and his rotation spot could be in jeopardy if he doesn't turn things around soon. Woods Richardson was briefly called up for a spot start over the weekend and pitched well in his season debut, as he allowed one run on two hits and a walk over six innings at Detroit. If Woods Richardson is brought back up, it will be the first time he's made multiple big-league appearances in the same season.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
2020
Richardson had a 5.76 ERA with a troubling 5.2 BB/9 at Double-A New Hampshire before his trade to Minnesota from Toronto in 2021 as part of the Jose Berrios deal. He threw just eight innings at Double-A after the trade as he spent time on the U.S. Olympic team. With a full season in the Minnesota organization, he bounced back to show he's a potential back end major league rotation arm. Woods Richardson made a strong impression at Double-A with a 3.06 ERA and 9.81 K/9 in 16 games and then had a 2.21 ERA with a 9.3 K/9 in seven Triple-A starts. He got one late-season start in the majors as a result (3 ER in 5 IP). Woods Richardson doesn't have great velocity (low-to-mid 90s fastball) but has three quality off-speed pitches and good control (3.1 BB/9 across all three levels last season). He'll compete for a rotation spot this spring, but may spend much of the season at Triple-A before getting another shot.
