DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers are bringing back starting pitcher Jack Flaherty. The 29-year-old right-hander, who the Tigers traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers last July just before their incredible sprint toward the playoffs, has agreed to a two-year deal to return to Detroit.

Veteran right-handed starter Jack Flaherty has agreed to a free-agent contract with the Detroit Tigers, he announced on social media. It's a two-year deal worth $35 million, reports The Athletic. The contract includes an opt out after 2025 and will pay Flaherty $25 million this coming season and $10 million in 2026.
