CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Carson Fulmer makes his MLB starting debut as the 26th roster guy and will return to the minors after the game. Sox will be looking for the sweep after winning game 1 7-6 for their 2nd win in a row. Dillon Gee makes the start for the Twins . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elrockinMT Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Let's strive mightily to win the game because it's more fun than losing. Plus we can spoil the Twinkies chances. Interesting to see what Fulmer brings to the table tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Best of luck to Fulmer. Kid has gotten very underrated by FS people it seems. Still have hope he overcomes his control issues. Has more than enough stuff to be up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His stuff to me plays up there. He is missing with his pitches though which is what has been his issue since he was rushed up last year. Who knows how much that hurt his development in the long run (which I've been on record here saying Sox crippled that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get any contributions from him as a reliever, you consider it a nice surprise. Let's hope the drafting improves as we go forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BamaDoc Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 He doesn't seem to have any command nor any true put away pitch that I am seeing. He is getting to some two strike counts but failure to locate is killing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
