Overall
Summary
Dax Fulton, a former second-round pick (2020) from the Miami Marlins, was recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to make his MLB debut on May 6, 2026. The 24-year-old left-handed pitcher made his debut on May 7 against the Baltimore Orioles, pitching 4.0 innings of relief with 3 strikeouts, 2 runs allowed on 3 hits, and 2 walks in a 7-4 Marlins loss. Fulton has had a challenging path to the majors, undergoing Tommy John surgery as an amateur and again in June 2023 (internal brace procedure on left UCL), which caused him to miss the entire 2024 season. In Triple-A Jacksonville in 2026, he posted a 7.65 ERA over 20 innings with 24 strikeouts and 11 walks. In 2025, his comeback year, he posted a 5.38 ERA with a 3.55 FIP and 23.8% strikeout rate. He is a 6'7" southpaw sitting at 93.6 mph on his fastball, capable of reaching 96-97 mph.
