Tigers' Michael Fulmer isn't going anywhere after another gem.

Fulmer, a former first-round draft pick who was acquired from the New York Mets in exchange for Yoenis Cespedes last year, threw 124.2 innings. The year prior, he threw 98.1. Judging from the 20-25 percent estimate, the Tigers are probably figuring on him throwing in the 150-155 inning range.

Just what the Dr. ordered with Fulmer. Could be a season saver. If Fulmer keeps pitching the way he is 1-3 is as good as if not better than 50% of the teams out there

Verlander
Zimmerman
Fulmer

I smell an Edwin Jackson resurgence with the Tigers on the horizon.

Sanchez needs to be scrubed to the pen. He only has a few food innings a game now.

Do the Tigers ever draft starters stick with the club anymore? Verlander then who?

Farmer and VerHagen (pitchers not necessarily starters)

Sanchez needs to go to the DL or the pen. He's been terrible.

 

[tbone413]

He needs to get sent down to Toledo. It seems like his confidence is zero. I almost wish it was an injury, but to me it seems he just isnt executing his pitches...

He is walking 4.6 batters and giving up 2.2 HR per 9 innings - that is a sick fucking joke.

Brad just said he's in the pen


No word yet who's taking his spot.

Just saw that on the 97.1 Facebook page. I'm thinking Greene or Norris would seem like decent candidates to replace him in the rotation.

Well Zimmerman is starting Friday so technically we still have 5 starters up. Fulmer, Boyd, Zimmerman, Pelfrey and JV. Sanchez's spot would have been next Monday which would fall on Fulmer's normal rest.

Ausmus on Sanchez: "He could work his way back into the rotation, but nothing promised."

It's hard to think of a situation where I'd bring him in from the bullpen.

3rd inning, down 8-2

 

[stonecold2136]

Maybe Sanchez can fill the 7th or 8th inning position cause Lowe isn't getting it done right now

Brad Ausmus needs a quicker hook.

 

[djcox2112]

Take it back on Fulmer, now that he is throwing the changeup with consistency, he is here to stay... Not only that, he is definitely our #1 or #2 with Zimmerman hurt... I like 1 thru 3, now how can we piece together 4/5??? It's time for another "Fister" trade, someone who goes 9-1 the second half... Any starters around the league who have crap records who could be gotten? If that miracle doesn't happen, here's my rotation moving forward:
1. Zimmerman
2. Verlander
3. Fulmer
4. Greene
5. Boyd


Can't stand Pelfry, slop with some slower slop...

While I dislike the quality start stat, Brad leading the league in Blown Quality Starts for 2+ years running is asinine.

From the article...
Brad Ausmus has led all of baseball in blown quality starts for two seasons and some change, which seems significant given a few other facts: no other MLB team has led the league in blown quality starts in back-to-back seasons since before 1995 (and probably further, I just stopped checking once I got that far back), and -- perhaps more importantly -- Brad Ausmus has accomplished this feat with two very different sets of starting rotations and bullpens.

Brad Ausmus is not a good manager.

Everyone wanted to shove smokes out of the building. Kudos
