Lyon Richardson News: Sent back to Triple-A

The Reds optioned Richardson to Triple-A Louisville on Thursday.

Richardson was needed for three innings in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals, so he's being sent out in favor of a fresh bullpen arm. Yosver Zulueta was called up from Triple-A to take over Richardson's spot in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster.
