Michael Fulmer Stats

Minnesota Twins pitcher Michael Fulmer allowed a hit and a walk while striking out one in two-thirds of an inning, earning the save in Thursday's 4-3 win against the New York Yankees. He entered the game in the ninth inning with a runner on first base to protect a two-run lead. The 29-year-old loaded the bases and allowed a run before retiring the last two batters to end the game. Since being acquired by the Twins at the MLB trade deadline, he owns a 3.38 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 18:7 K:BB in 16 innings across 18 appearances. Fulmer is used in high-leverage situations but is called on for the occasional save, making him more of a fantasy asset in deep-league formats.

Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Michael Fulmer has been traded to the Minnesota Twins. This adds on to the already big day for the Twins. The Tigers will receive right-hander Sawyer Gipson-Long in exchange for Fulmer. This season, Fulmer has a 3.20 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 39/20 K/BB ratio through 39.3 innings of work. The additions of Fulmer and Jorge Lopez should hopefully be a significant upgrade to Minnesota's bullpen. As for Detroit, they receive a fairly decent arm in Gipson-Long. He has pitched well in High-A and will hopefully move quickly through the minor league system.

The Toronto Blue Jays are among the teams interested in Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Michael Fulmer, according to sources. Fulmer tossed a scoreless eighth inning against the Blue Jays on Friday night and has been very solid in a relief role for Detroit this year, posting a 2.77 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP with two saves, 38 strikeouts and 20 walks in 39 relief innings. The 29-year-old right-hander will be a free agent after this season, and he could provide the Blue Jays with an experienced bullpen arm ahead of closer Jordan Romano as they prepare for a run at a postseason spot in the second half of the season.
