Lands on injured list Fulmer was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a right cervical spine strain in his neck.

Impact Fulmer was shaky in his outing against Houston in the second half of Saturday's twin bill, allowing back-to-back homers to Yordan Alvarez and Carlos Correa to blow a 2-0 lead. It's not clear if the neck issue arose Saturday or if Fulmer has been managing the problem for longer, but he'll be on the shelf for at least the next 10 days. Miguel Del Pozo was recalled from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding roster move.

Blows save Saturday Fulmer (4-4) allowed three runs on three hits in one inning Saturday in a blown save against Houston.

Impact Fulmer entered the game in the sixth to nail down a 2-0 lead and coughed it up on a pair of home runs by Yordan Alvarez and Carlos Correa. It was the second blown save in eight opportunities this season for Fulmer, who saw his ERA balloon from 3.46 to 4.05. He's put up a solid 42:11 K:BB through 40 innings and should remain in the high-leverage mix for the Tigers.

Handles ninth inning Wednesday Fulmer worked a scoreless ninth inning in a non-save situation during Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Cardinals. He allowed a hit and struck out two.

Impact Despite the four-run lead, the Tigers didn't take any chances and turned to Fulmer, who has established himself as the club's primary late-game option. The righty has a 3.46 ERA and 42 strikeouts across 39 innings this season, and he's tied with Gregory Soto for the team lead with six saves. Both pitchers should remain in the closer mix, along with Jose Cisnero.

Near disaster in save Wednesday Fulmer allowed two runs on three hits and struck out one in one inning to earn the save in Wednesday's 6-5 win over Kansas City.

Impact Fulmer was fortunate to have a three-run lead to protect, as he gave up an RBI double to Whit Merrfield and an RBI single to Carlos Santana with two outs. The righty was able to strike out Salvador Perez to end the threat. Fulmer is now 5-for-6 in save chances with a 3.65 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 37:10 K:BB across 37 innings this year. Wednesday was just his second appearance since returning from a shoulder injury. Gregory Soto and Jose Cisnero remain in the mix for save chances, although the latter worked a perfect eighth inning for a hold in this contest.

Officially activated Monday Fulmer (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list Monday.

Impact The right-hander hasn't pitched since May 30 due to a strained right shoulder, and he'll rejoin the active roster Monday after a brief trip to the injured list.

The 28-year-old is 4-for-5 in save chances and should reclaim primary closer's duties now that he's healthy, though Jose Cisnero and Gregory Soto also remain in the mix.
