DETROIT — Michael Fulmer doesn’t change anything on cold, rainy days.
The Detroit Tigers right-hander will bundle up when it’s wet and chilly if he’s not pitching. On the mound, it’s a different story.
“The only question would be whether I wear sleeves or not,” he said. “I don’t wear sleeves, so that eliminates that.”
Weather permitting, the bare-armed Fulmer will oppose Cleveland’s Danny Salazar in the finale of a four-game series on Thursday afternoon. The weather forecast calls for rainy conditions and temperatures in the low to mid 40s.
Fulmer (2-1, 3.19 ERA) has not allowed more than three runs in any of his five starts this season but he’s gotten into some trouble in the early going.
