Likely to pitch in bulk relief Saturday
Manager John Schneider said that Woods Richardson will be part of the Blue Jays' pitching plan for Saturday's game against the Yankees "in some capacity," Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Right-hander Braydon Fisher will start for Toronto, but he's unlikely to work more than an inning or two before giving way to the bullpen. Woods Richardson will be available on four days' rest and will likely be tasked with covering multiple innings in relief behind Fisher. After being called up from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday, Woods Richardson came on in long relief in the Blue Jays' victory over the Red Sox later that night, earning the win after giving up one earned run across three innings.

Collects win Monday
Woods Richardson (2-7) picked up the win over the Red Sox on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and one walk over three relief innings. He struck out two.

The lone run off the right-hander came on a bizarre play in the seventh inning when the scoreboard showed the wrong number of outs and both teams lost track, and a Boston runner trotted home without tagging up at third base on a flyout before Toronto got the ball to first base to record a somewhat haphazard double play. Starter Jameson Taillon (forearm) left the game early, and if he ends up landing on the IL, Woods Richardson could be the next man up in the rotation. Over four long-relief appearances for the Jays this season, he's managed a 0.69 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 13 innings despite a poor 7:8 K:BB.

Returns to big-league roster
The Blue Jays selected Woods Richardson's contract from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Woods Richardson was removed from the 40-man roster in late June, but he's earned another opportunity by logging a 1.65 ERA and 14:6 K:BB over 16.1 innings across his last four appearances with Buffalo. The righty will likely be used in a long relief role.
