- On Saturday, right-hander Kyle Finnegan finalized a $19 million, two-year contract with the Detroit Tigers, including a $10 million mutual option for 2028 and a $2.25 million buyout.
- Following a one-year contract that included deferred pay, Kyle Finnegan was acquired by the Tigers on July 31 from Washington and became a free agent last month after signing a $6 million deal.

- He didn’t pitch between Aug. 31 and Sept. 20 because of a right adductor strain, and his contract includes $500,000 performance bonuses in 2026 and '27, with career totals of 26-30, 3.55 ERA, 112 saves, and 347 relief appearances.
