DETROIT -- Michael Fulmer will miss his next start for the Detroit Tigers, but he's confident that the shoulder inflammation he experienced last week isn't serious.
Fulmer was given a cortisone injection in his right shoulder after an MRI revealed fluid in his bursa sac but no structural damage.
Fulmer's next start has been pushed back to Saturday against the Tampa Bay Rays.

Avila didn't play against over the weekend in Boston because the Red Sox started three consecutive left-handed pitchers.
