Detroit Tigers reliever Michael Fulmer started his rehabilitation activity in early July by traveling to Lakeland, Florida, to recover from a right cervical spine strain, which sent him to the 10-day injured list June 27.
Fulmer, 28, is "doing great" and on track to return, manager AJ Hinch said Saturday. But the Tigers are at the beginning of their multi-step plan. First, the right-hander must complete a bullpen session this weekend without complications.
"And then have a couple of those bullpens, and then set up a live (batting practice), and then off we go," Hinch said.
