Orlando, Fla. – The Tigers are running it back with leverage reliever Kyle Finnegan.
Late Tuesday night, he and the club reached an agreement on a two-year deal worth $19 million, sources confirmed to The Detroit News.
Finnegan, 34, came to the Tigers at the trade deadline last season and provided a productive late-inning complement to Will Vest. He posted three wins and four saves in 18 regular-season innings with a 0.722 WHIP.
The reunion was hardly a surprise.
“I loved every second of my time here,” Finnegan said after the Tigers’ season ended in a 15-inning loss in Seattle in Game 5 of the ALDS. “Hopefully, the feeling is mutual. I’ll head into free agency and see what that has in store for me, but I can’t say enough good things about the Tigers.”
