Cubs RHP Fulmer to miss 2024 season after UCL revision surgery

Chicago Cubs reliever Michael Fulmer is expected to miss the 2024 season following elbow surgery.

The 30-year-old right-hander had UCL revision surgery on his right elbow on Wednesday, the team confirmed Thursday. UCL revision surgery is not the same as Tommy John surgery, but focuses on the same area.

Fulmer ended the season on the 60-day injured list after going 3-5 with a 4.42 ERA and two saves in 58 games (one start).
