Fulmer (elbow) has been playing light catch and is hoping to return to game action before the end of the season, per MLB.com.

Fulmer landed on the injured list Aug. 30 due to right elbow inflammation. He first noticed the issue during his Aug. 25 start but continued pitching, and he attempted to throw a bullpen session days later before the decision was made to put him on the IL. While the injury doesn't appear to be serious and there remains a chance of Fulmer returning to action this season, the Angels are unlikely to rush his recovery since they are well out of the playoff race.
