He was able to make his debut appearance in the next season and came in as a runner-up for the voting of the NL Rookie of the Year.

 

He was able to post a 3.00 ERA and made 18 strike-outs, breaking the then-record for number of strikeouts by a rookie. The 18 strikeouts is still a record in the Expos history. In 1986, Gullickson was signed by the Cincinnati Reds and was next signed by the New York Yankees in 1987.

 

However, Gullickson decided to sign with Yomiuri Giants of the NPB in 1988. In Japan, he was able to come up with a 21-14 win-loss record.
