Tigers scout checking Yankees’ talent with Fulmer on radar

CLEVELAND — With the Yankees keeping an eye Detroit right-hander Michael Fulmer, the Tigers had a scout at Progressive Field on Thursday night to watch the Yankees-Indians game.

It’s no secret, even with the Manny Machado talks dominating the news cycle, the Yankees are very serious about adding at least one starter to a rotation headed by Luis Severino and CC Sabathia.

Fulmer isn’t an ace, but could fit in between Sabathia and Masahiro Tanaka or turn Domingo German into a long reliever.

Though the Yankees wouldn’t part with Miguel Andujar or Greg Bird for Fulmer, the Tigers have an interest in Clint Frazier and Tyler Wade.
