Carson Fulmer’s Scouting Report
Vanderbilt has produced the following pitchers David Price, Sonny Gray, Mark Prior and Mike Minor. It’s never a bad idea to take a Vanderbilt product and Fulmer has the potential to join that list. He’s a very hard thrower with a unique windup. His windup is quick and it looks like he’s trying way too hard to throw his arm out. Fulmer has the stuff to be a dominant starting pitcher but he may need to change his mechanics up just a bit. He releases at a three-quarter slot. It would be a waste of talent to put this guy in a big league bullpen. He’s a very fast working pitcher and has the ability to throw a lot of strikes, but he has had trouble with command at times. We’ve seen quirky mechanics work before and you never no it could work for Fulmer.
