2026 review

Trevor Richards was a swing reliever who moved teams mid-season and settled into bullpen depth: he posted a 3.69 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 83.0 IP across 54 games, with a 21.2 K% and a 7.5 BB% over 345 BF, plus 2 SV, 1 HLD and 2 BS. His contract was selected by PHI on Apr 30, and he was traded from PHI to CHW on May 5; he also went on the bereavement list Jul 9 and was activated Jul 13. Undrafted in NFBC drafts, he finished 573rd of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank and 226th of 575 relievers. His 3.69 ERA ran 0.46 below his 4.15 xERA over 345 BF, and his best month was Jun at a 1.26 ERA in 14.1 IP against a 6.94 ERA in 11.2 IP in May. The TDK LABS card tracked the shift in role: in early May it had him freshly selected with strong minor-league form and a look at a bullpen game start, and by August it had him typed as a multi-inning long man in a fluid CHW pen with no leverage and no save path, a read it still carried by late Sep.
