There's nothing like moving to the National League to boost
There's nothing like moving to the National League to boost a player's fantasy fortunes. Richard had a 4.65 ERA in 26 games with the White Sox, but rang up a much nice 4.08 mark -- and a tidy 5-2 record -- in 12 starts with the Padres. Petco is a great place to pitch, of course, but Richard's run of three straight fine starts to end the season included two road games. Over that stretch, Richard posted an eye-opening 0.95 ERA in 19 innings, despite a 9/8 K/BB ratio. He's not overwhelming, but given his solid work down the stretch and fine home park, Richard is a solid back-of-the-rotation option in NL-only leagues next year.
