Tigers' Michael Fulmer throws bullpen, could start Monday at Rangers

Detroit Free Press

Michael Fulmer threw 20 pitches in a bullpen at Comerica Park today, while Daniel Norris threw two innings in a simulated game at Triple-A Toledo.

“If he feels fine tomorrow, he’ll probably be on track for Monday,” Detroit Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said of the possibility of Fulmer making his next scheduled start.

The Tigers visit the Texas Rangers starting Monday. Ausmus said Justin Verlander would slot back to Tuesday if Fulmer can pitch on Monday.

“All I can tell them is I’m healthy enough to pitch,” Fulmer said.
