A look at the candidates who could be called up by the Detroit Tigers when rosters expand Tuesday.

Michael Fulmer: This is the guy almost every Tigers fan wants to see. They might see him. It seems logical that the Tigers would not add Fulmer to the 40-man roster now. Why tie up a 40-man spot with him before he is needed? But the Tigers will have to add Fulmer to the 40-man roster prior to the Rule 5 draft in December anyway, so there isn't much harm in adding him now. He's not a lock to come up. But you might see him.

(Note: The information on Fulmer runs contrary to what Chris Iott wrote here and here and here. Just revisited the Rule 5 language, did the math and realized that Fulmer is Rule 5 eligible this offseason.)
