Palehosefan Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 3, 2015 -> 07:47 PM) Er, strike that. Fulmer just said he'll be reporting to Arizona on the 10th. Weird. Rodon did the same thing. They go there for evaluation and to fix any minor adjustments the coaches see. Fulmer should be in Kanny soon.

southsider2k5 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 4, 2015 -> 10:46 AM) Did he throw a strike? Yes. If the first pitches weren't televised it was actually pretty funny. At the game they gave out foam shark hats/fins as a part of a promo by Discovery Channel for Shark Week. So they actually had 3 different first pitches. They had a dude in a shark costume throw out the first one, and he was high and outside to Samardjiza (shark to shark). The second first pitch was thrown out by Chicago native Tony Allen (the basketball player). He bounced one 10 feet in front of home plate. So a guy in a shark suit threw a better first pitch, then an NBA player. Fulmer was right on the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine he'll start in the pen. He has a ton of innings already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackSox13 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 The Sox have depth in the pen now and for 2016 so theres zero point in bringing up Fulmer this year and maybe even next. If the Sox really believe Fulmer will be a starter then keep him in the minors to get used to pitching in a five man rotation. If at some point during the 2016 season Fulmer shows he is ready then call him up. Otherwise let him get used to starting every fifth game and build up his innings. Fulmer should not be called up until he's ready, period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were planning to call him up regardless of how the season started. They waited until they got the extra year before he hit FA and then called him up almost immediately. They'd even skipped a Noesi start before then IIRC, so Noesi didn't really have much time to be terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get him used to the routine. 3. Expose him to mlb hitters to start the learning process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just found out last night. DJ King is still in theory a possible sign, but I know nothing about the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
