YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Anyone know if this is legit? Jesse Burkhart @jesseburkhart Hearing rumor White Sox top prospect Carson Fulmer is getting the call to the majors as soon as tomorrow. Threw at team’s AZ complex today.

Jose Abreu Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Yup, solid source. Wonder if he'll start for Rodon and then move to the bullpen, or just be a reliever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Awesome! Seems like early on he was working on things that's why he was getting shelled. Pitched a lot better as of late. Personally, I'd like to move him to AAA first but maybe one of our future sox guys can give some insight on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted July 15, 2016 Author Share Posted July 15, 2016 I'm really hoping he succeeds right away at the MLB level. I think having Sale with him as a mentor will be beneficial to his development and maturity as a pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunt Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 14, 2016 -> 10:48 PM) Yup, solid source. Wonder if he'll start for Rodon and then move to the bullpen, or just be a reliever. I think that is definitely the plan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Personally I'd like to see him come out of the pen this season and then start next year. Having Fulmer and Burdi eventually gives this pen some much needed help. 2017 rotation has lots of potential: Sale, Quintana, Shields, Rodon, Fulmer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalSox Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 So can someone explain this to me... Beck down for Fulmer, Coats down for Morneau. That would leave the roster at 25, right? Then if that is right, what about Turner supposedly starting Sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 More confirmation @chriscotillo Source confirms: White Sox are promoting Carson Fulmer to the majors, and he will be activated tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerksticks Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Wow! So what's the rotation schedule to start the second half? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Looks like Carson is going straight to the pen, no spot start for Carlos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I think it should say "no spot start for CARSON..." So that means either Turner or Ranaudo's starting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hi8is Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Bummed out that he isn't getting the start Sunday for personal reasons but understand the rationality of it. Go get em Fulmer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Personal or personnel? Not quite sure I understand the "personal reasons" for why he wouldn't be starting but would be coming out of the pen instead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite sure I understand the "personal reasons" for why he wouldn't be starting but would be coming out of the pen instead... He's getting showcased for a trade I bet. Weird timing considering he hasn't earned the promotion with his performance either. Edited July 15, 2016 by soxforlife05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird timing considering he hasn't earned the promotion with his performance either. They arent going to showcase him by bringing him out of the pen, that makes no sense and with the way hes been pitching he absolutely earned a promotion.

Chicago White Sox Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 It likely won't be right away, but Fulmer should be a weapon out of the pen this season. Having a second legit guy from the right side for the 7th & 8th innings will be huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
