Detroit Tigers' Michael Fulmer penciled to start Friday vs. White Sox

Detroit Tigers' pitcher Michael Fulmer will return from the 10-day disabled list later this week, starting Friday night’s game against the White Sox, manager Ron Gardenhire said.

Fulmer has been on the DL with a left oblique strain since just after the All-Star break. He made two minor league injury rehabilitation starts with Class A Lakeland previously, showing great stuff. In his latest, he struck out seven of the 13 batters he faced.

Gardenhire said Fulmer will be on a pitch count of 70.

Fulmer was placed on the 10-day DL after the All-Star break.
