-
Trevor Richards changed teams in 2026. He started the season with the Philadelphia Phillies, then was traded to the Chicago White Sox in May 2026, after being designated for assignment by Philadelphia. This move put him back on a 40-man roster with a new bullpen role anticipated for the White Sox. [Sources: RotoWire summary of 2026 transactions, and CBS Sports recap of the trade][1][2]
-
In Philadelphia, Richards had posted solid results at Lehigh Valley before being added to the MLB roster, including a 1.93 ERA and strong strikeout numbers across his minor-league innings, which helped make him a candidate for long-relief in doubleheader situations. He continued to be viewed as a versatile bullpen arm.[3]
-
Updates from fantasy and fantasy-adjacent outlets in May 2026 indicated his role with the White Sox as likely middle-relief, with potential high-leverage opportunities if he pitched well after the trade.[2]
