Michael Fulmer Stats

Chicago Cubs right-hander Michael Fulmer (elbow) underwent right-elbow UCL revision surgery on Thursday and is expected to miss the entire 2024 season as a result. Fulmer is scheduled to be a free agent after the World Series, so he may have to wait a while before signing with a team once he proves he's on track in his rehab. The 30-year-old reliever and former American League Rookie of the Year with the Detroit Tigers in 2016 went 3-5 with a 4.42 ERA (4.15 FIP), 1.33 WHIP, two saves, 28 walks and 65 strikeouts in 57 innings over 58 appearances (one start) in his first year for the Cubs in 2023.

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Michael Fulmer (forearm) has been placed on the 15-day injured list with a forearm issue on Saturday. The 30-year-old righty was recently activated from the injured list on September 11 after dealing with the same forearm issue but only made one appearance for the Cubbies before landing back on the IL. Fulmer has put together a 4.42 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, and 65:28 K/BB ratio over 58 appearances this year but there's a good chance his regular season is finished. Reliever Daniel Palencia was recalled from Triple-A Iowa in a corresponding move.

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Michael Fulmer (forearm) was activated from the 15-day injured list Monday after recovering from a right forearm strain and earned his second save of the season in a 5-4 win over the Rockies. Fulmer came on to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by one with one out and the bases empty. He allowed a walk and hit a batter before getting the second and third outs on strikeouts. The Cubs put closer Adbert Alzolay (forearm) on the 15-day IL Monday with a right forearm strain and Fulmer has closed previously in his career, so it appears that he may get the first shot in the interim. He owns a 4.42 ERA with a 10.26 K/9 rate and a 4.42 BB/9 rate in 57 innings pitched. Fulmer is now worth a look in deeper roto leagues to finish out the season.
