Richardson, 25, leads the major leagues in losses and leads the American League in earned runs allowed (41).
His ERA swelled to 7.74 in Thursday's 6-2 road loss to the Chicago White Sox when he allowed five runs on five hits in 2 2/3 innings. He has struck out 26 batters, walked 25 and surrendered nine homers in 47 2/3 innings. Opponents are batting .330 against him with a .952 OPS in 12 games (10 starts).
