Nub Fulton
Starting Pitcher | Cold Lake Mud Cats
Pitching He's got a really stong arm, so he can blow it by you on occasion. Fulton's fastball was clocked at 95 MPH most of the season and he kept excellent control of it. Fulton can get into trouble with walks, and there's concern about him being able to maintain his stuff over the whole season. Fulton also has a decent changeup. He's almost as effective against lefthanders as he is versus righthanders.
Defense & Hitting He has a quick release to the plate, which allows catchers a chance to throw out basestealers. He isn't especially quick off the mound but generally fields his position adequately. Fulton is a surpisingly good hitting pitcher. And I'm not sure you can say this about a pitcher, but Fulton has some pop in his swing. Interesting sidenote, The Cold Lake Mud Cats have been known to use Fulton as a pinch-runner on occasion.
2025 Outlook The Cold Lake Mud Cats signed him to a long-term contract, but don't think they won't drop Fulton like a hot potato if something better comes along.
