Source: Tigers agree to 1-year deal with reliever Pagan
The Detroit Tigers have agreed to a one-year deal with reliever Emilio Pagan, a source confirmed to ESPN.
Pagan became a free agent after declining a $10 million player option with the Cincinnati Reds for next season.
Pagan was 5-1 with a 3.38 ERA and 25 saves in 28 chances in 2026, when he had a $10 million salary. He didn't pitch for the Reds between May 5 and July 3 because of a strained left hamstring. The 35-year-old right-hander has 90 saves in 10 major league seasons, the past three with the Reds.
