There's a suggestion that Scherzer is in control of the trade, because he can veto any team, if there are multiple bidders he can pick the winner. That would be wild.
It doesn't hurt to have a little depth for injuries, if you can manage it.
But with guys like Valdez and Rios stepping up, Richards could certainly be out of the picture.
I don't know about the triceps issue, but assume they wouldn't trade for him if his health is in doubt at all.
His contract was $210 million for 7 years with half of it deferred.
Going to be an interesting two days.
