Fulmer is just bad. At this point any value as a reliever will be a nice surprise.

 

Agreed. My reaction to the 9 of the top 68 prospects was, "yeah, but one of them is Fulmer, and it's just not true".

 

He's not a lost cause, but he's never going to be a starter when the Sox are good.

I had the same reaction but then it occurred to me Hansen and/or Dunning have played themselves into top 100 consideration, so it's sort of a wash.

 

Fulmer really is a bummer right now, though.

There's only room for one Bummer in this organization

He really has no business still being down in the AZL.

Extra bases have obviously been nice but he's coming off a college season where he struck out 32% of the time and it's been 40% so far in the AZL. I imagine they'll want that to improve before sending him to Kanny, although their catchers have been awful.

Given that Fulmer's performance has clearly regressed, I think it's unwise to assume the version we're seeing out there right now is the "real" one. Sometimes players do regress (or over-perform for stretches), but I think something's off. Perhaps he's about to join Burdi on the operating table.

Skoug is defying logic, still has a BABIP of 1.000 after 15 plate appearances. You think he can keep it up?

 

If he does I'm not as worried about 50% k rate
