News: Richard (illness) made his initial rehab outing Thursday, tossing six innings of one-run ball with four hits and a 6:0 K:BB ratio. His next rehab game arrives Tuesday, again at Triple-A Tucson, the San Diego Union-Tribune reports. Impact: Richard is recovering from an intestinal virus that caused him to lose 12 pounds earlier this month. Moreover, he is eligible to be activated from the DL on Tuesday, but since that is clearly out of the question, he'll likely rejoin the Padres' rotation shortly thereafter.(RotoWire, )
