Detroit Tigers sign reliever Trevor Rosenthal to minor-league deal with MLB camp invite

LAKELAND, Fla. — The Detroit Tigers have signed right-handed reliever Trevor Rosenthal to a minor-league contract with a non-roster invitation to spring training. He is expected to compete for a spot in the Opening Day bullpen.

Rosenthal, 32, hasn't pitched in the big leagues since 2020.

The Tigers and Rosenthal have been in communication about the possibility of a minor-league contract since at least January, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. Those talks picked up momentum over the past couple weeks and led to an agreement.
