Pulsipher was named the New York Mets Minor League Player of the Year when he had led the Binghamton Mets to the playoffs where he threw a no-hitter, sources say.
As the spring training in 1996 closes to an end, Pulsipher was still experiencing elbow pain, which he felt in the previous season, when a Magnetic Resonance Imaging showed torn ligaments and subsequent Tommy John surgery wiped out his entire season. In 1997, Pulsipher began the season with Norfolk, but pitched terribly. Pulsipher afterwards recounted that he was diagnosed with depression during that time. On July 31, 1998, Pulsipher was dealt to the Milwaukee Brewers for Mike Kinkade. Pulsipher started for the Brewers for the rest of 1998; however, he needed a back surgery after the season.
