Michael Fulmer - Page 13 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Available as reliever Fulmer will be available out of the bullpen Wednesday and Thursday in Chicago, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Impact Fulmer and Tarik Skubal had been piggybacking, but Skubal will work as a traditional starter Friday while Fulmer shifts to a less rigid role in the short term. He has pitched very well this season, logging a 3.32 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 17:4 K:BB in 19 innings, but he has not been used in a fantasy-friendly role.

Effective in short start Fulmer allowed one hit and two walks while striking out two in three scoreless innings in Sunday's loss to the Royals. He didn't factor into the decision.

Impact Fulmer threw only 36 pitches Sunday since he was pitching on three days' rest, but the right-hander held Kansas City in check to begin the game. Fulmer has made six appearances (three starts) to begin the season, and he's posted a 3.32 ERA and 0.84 WHIP in 19 innings during that time. He lines up to make his next start on the road against the Yankees on Friday.

Impact Considering that Fulmer is pitching on three days' rest after covering four frames (60 pitches) in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Pirates, the fact that his workload is being restricted for a second straight outing doesn't come as a major surprise. Hinch noted that Tarik Skubal is scheduled to pitch Sunday, but it's unclear if he'll act as a true bulk reliever behind Fulmer or merely cover an inning or two.

Detroit Tigers' Michael Fulmer vs. Pirates: 'Some of the best stuff I had' Detroit Tigers right-hander Michael Fulmer talks Wednesday, April 21, 2021, after a 3-2 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates at Comerica Park.

APRIL 22, 2021 • FREEP.COM

Takes loss in matinee Fulmer (1-1) allowed three runs on four hits and a walk with three strikeouts over four innings. He took the loss in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Pirates.

Impact Fulmer was initially only expected to work three innings at most, but his pitch count was low enough to stay in. That turned out to be a mistake, as the Pirates tagged him for three runs in the fourth inning. The right-hander had a 3.94 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 15 strikeouts across 16 innings this season. Fulmer is still working up his pitch count -- he threw 60 pitches Wednesday (40 strikes). He could start on short rest versus the Royals on Sunday, but he could be piggybacked again as he was against the Pirates.

Impact Fulmer had been expected to make a more traditional start Tuesday, but that plan was thwarted after inclement weather in Detroit resulted in a postponement. Beginning Wednesday, the Tigers will begin a stretch of six games in five games, but Hinch apparently isn't planning on adding a sixth starter to the mix. Instead, the skipper is hopeful that with an abbreviated outing Tuesday, Fulmer will be ready to start on three days' rest in Sunday's series finale versus the Royals.

Earns first win since 2018 Fulmer (1-0) allowed two runs on three hits across five innings to earn the win Wednesday against the Astros. He walked one and struck out two.

Impact Fulmer was solid if not spectacular against a potent Houston lineup, and it earned the righty his first win in the majors since 2018. It's been a long road back for Fulmer, who missed all of 2019 following Tommy John surgery then logged only 27.2 innings last season as the Tigers eased him back into action. With Julio Teheran (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list, Fulmer could stick in the rotation for a bit, though Spencer Turnbull's return from the COVID-19 injured list will complicate matters. For now, Fulmer is lined up to start again Tuesday against Pittsburgh, and he'll look to build on this positive outing.
