The Detroit Tigers have signed former New York Yankees second baseman Gleyber Torres to a $15 million, one-year contract

On Friday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post and MLB Network reported that Torres had reached agreement with the Detroit Tigers on a free-agent contract. It's a one-year, $15 million deal, per MLB.com. Torres, who just turned 28, became an All-Star in his first two Yankees seasons, topping out with 38 homers, 90 RBI and an .872 OPS in 2019.

A return to the Yankees was not in the cards for Gleyber Torres. The second baseman said the Yankees were not particularly aggressive during his free agency before he signed a one-year, $15 million contract with the Detroit Tigers late last week. “I didn’t really have any offer from them,” Torres said during an introductory Zoom call.
