DETROIT -- Tigers right-hander Michael Fulmer, who left his last outing Saturday with soreness in his right knee, has damage in the meniscus, manager Ron Gardenhire said Monday.
An MRI exam conducted earlier Monday in Detroit and reviewed by team orthopedic physician Dr. Stephen Lemos showed the damage. Renowned orthopedic surgeon Dr. James Andrews will review the exam results for a second opinion before Fulmer and the team will decide on the next step.
"We'll just wait and see exactly what they tell us," said Gardenhire, who did not answer whether surgery is a possibility at this point.
