Michael Fulmer - Page 4 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Pitching well this spring Fulmer has yet to allow a run across three Cactus League appearances. He's struck out three.

Impact Fulmer has been steady so far in spring training action, and he should be able to carry that over into the regular season after posting strong numbers out of the bullpen in 2021 and 2022. The veteran righty should have a high-leverage role with the Cubs, possibly even closing out games, though Brandon Hughes and Brad Boxberger are also in the mix at the end of games. Fulmer's fantasy value would obviously increase if he's seeing regular save opportunities.

Cubs, RHP Michael Fulmer finalize $4M, 1-year contract

The Chicago Cubs have added Michael Fulmer to their bullpen, finalizing a $4 million, one-year contract with the right-hander

FEBRUARY 20, 2023 • Associated Press

Joining Cubs' bullpen Fulmer agreed to a contract with the Cubs on Friday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Impact The terms of the deal are not yet known. Fulmer's velocity and strikeouts were down a bit in 2022 but he remained mostly effective, posting a 3.39 ERA and 61:28 K:BB over 63.2 innings for the Tigers and Twins. The 29-year-old has some closing experience and could be in the mix to get some saves as part of a Cubs bullpen which lacks established high-leverage options.
