Fulmer will be called up to start Friday against the Twins, Chris Iott of MLive.com reports.
Fulmer will jump from Triple-A Toledo into the Tigers' rotation of Shane Greene, who will be placed on the disabled list due to a blister. That could mean several starts with the big league club for Fulmer with Greene out at least a couple weeks. Greene's numbers on the season aren't pretty, but he could get a shot to start again when healthy. However, Fulmer is one of the Tigers' top prospects, so he could make the team's'decision a difficult one if he excels in Green's absence. Fulmer struck out 145 batters over his last 140 minor league innings, so he has some potential in the strikeout category.
