Well, for a month or so, the Detroit Tigers have had it going on the pitching side. The offense has improved, but remains mediocre at best, but the rotation has been pretty strong, and the addition of Michael Fulmer as a full-time reliever really tied the backend of the bullpen together.
All that is now set to be severely tested by injuries.
First, the Tigers have lost Spencer Turnbull for at least 10 days following his early exit Friday night with a forearm strain. Now it appears that Michael Fulmer may be bound for an IL stint as well.
