The Cincinnati Reds re-signed righty reliever Emilio Pagán to a two-year, $20 million contract, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal and C. Trent Rosecrans. The deal allows Pagán to opt out after next season.
Pagán, 34, began his MLB career with the Seattle Mariners in 2017. Seattle traded him to the Oakland Athletics in the 2017-18 offseason. Then, in the following offseason, the Athletics dealt him to the Tampa Bay Rays as part of a three-way deal with the Rangers involving utilityman Jurickson Profar.
After just one season with the Rays, Pagán was traded to the San Diego Padres for catcher Logan Driscoll and outfielder Manuel Margot.
