Jack Flaherty and the Detroit Tigers have agreed to a two-year, $35 million deal. The contact will pay Flaherty $25 million in 2025 with a player option in 2026 for $10 million. The option could increase to $20 million in the second year if he makes at least 15 starts in 2025, giving him the potential to earn $45 million over two seasons.
Flaherty split the 2024 season between the Tigers and Los Angeles Dodgers last season. Over 28 starts with the two clubs, Flaherty had a 3.17 ERA and threw 162 innings, his most since his breakout year in 2019.
