Does Michael Fulmer tip the scales and guarantee anything? Is he any better than what we are currently trotting out there on a daily basis? I'd argue that our current rotation has 4 guys better than he is this season. Maybe even all 5. Not to mention, is this season starting a trend or is it a fluke? Who is the real Michael Fulmer? Yes, he is young at 25, but is he an automatic upgrade that is worth the cost to nab him? I'll let you guys be the judge of that, but I'd set my sites on deGrom WAY before Fulmer... 2018 Michael Fulmer stats: W/L record - 3-7 ERA - 4.20 WHIP - 1.25 80 strikeouts in 94.1 innings pitched 2018 Junior Guerra stats: W/L record - 4-5 ERA - 3.05 WHIP - 1.20 80 strikeouts in 82.2 innings pitched 2018 Chase Anderson stats: W/L record - 6-6 ERA - 4.18 WHIP - 1.13 68 strikeouts in 88.1 innings pitched 2018 Brent Suter stats: W/L record - 8-5 ERA - 4.28 WHIP - 1.15 73 strikeouts in 88.1 innings pitched 2018 Jhoulys Chacin stats: (not including 6/30/start) W/L record - 6-3 ERA - 3.82 WHIP - 1.34 71 strikeouts in 92 innings pitched 2018 Freddy Peralta stats: W/L record - 30 ERA - 0.71 WHIP - 35 strikeouts in 22.2 innings pitched
