Normally this would be Matthew Boyd’s slot, but the lefty is being skipped for a turn while he deals with left knee tendinitis. Enter Fulmer, who made three starts in April -- two in a short piggyback role -- before replacing Boyd in relief last week.

After 12 days on the IL with forearm tightness, Lamet is set for a return to the rotation. It’s unclear how far he'll go, but the Padres will be cautious with the star right-hander, who missed the postseason last year due to a UCL strain.
