Detroit — Michael Fulmer threw off flat ground before Wednesday's game at Comerica Park for the second time since going on the disabled list. He increased the intensity of the throws and said everything felt great. But the real test of his oblique strain may come from the tug-of-war he’s about to have with manager Ron Gardenhire and the training staff.
“Oh, they already know,” Fulmer said with a smile. “They’ve tentatively written a throwing program for me and I’ve already tried to battle it.”
Fulmer will be pushing to get back as quickly as possible.
