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
Optioned to Triple-A
The Twins optioned Woods Richardson to Triple-A St. Paul on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Woods Richardson wasn't going to pitch again during the regular season after recording just three outs and allowing three runs against the Marlins on Wednesday. The Twins will use his roster spot on a third catcher in Jair Camargo.

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.

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.
