Analysis:
Richards is scheduled to throw five innings in the contest, which could ultimately lead to an activation Apr. 12 after a six-inning outing Thursday. That seems to be the best-case scenario, however, as manager Mike Scioscia said Richards experienced some fatigue after his last outing, and the team is prepared to scale back his return if necessary.
