Garrett Richards Battles Into Sixth Inning
4 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Garrett Richards didn't have his best stuff Friday, allowing four runs on 11 hits and two walks over 5 1/3 innings. He struck out three batters. All season, Richards has been able to work around baserunners, as evidenced by his 4.09 ERA and 1.59 WHIP. If he could limit the traffic, he might be worth a roster spot for fantasy managers, but for now he should only be used in more favorable matchups if possible, as it only seems a matter of time before more of those runners come around to score.
