Tigers sign Kahnle and Flaherty, trade Faedo to the Rays

The Detroit Tigers have been busy this offseason, as general manager Scott Harris has made several moves over the past month.

Most recently, Detroit announced the signing of right-handed pitcher Jack Flaherty to a two-year, $35 million dollar deal. Flaherty made 18 starts for the Tigers last season before he was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers before the trade deadline. Flaherty recorded a 2.95 E.R.A, 133 strikeouts, and an opposing .211 batting average in over 106 innings pitched last season.

The Tigers also signed veteran right-handed reliever Tommy Kahnle to a one-year, $7.75 million contract. As a Yankee in 2024, Kahnle threw just over 42 innings pitched and owned a 2.11 E.R.A. In his 50 games played, the left-hander only allowed 16 runs on 30 hits and struck out 46 batters. Kahnle has been with the Yankees since 2017 with the exception 2022, where he played with the Dodgers.

In response to the Kahnle signing, The Tigers traded right-handed pitcher Alex Faedo to Tampa Bay for catcher Enderson Delgado and cash considerations. Faedo spent three years in Detroit prior to the transaction, registering 57 innings in 2024 with a 3.61 E.R.A. and a .233 opposing batting average. Delgado, who played with the Single-A affiliate Charleston RiverDogs last season, had 235 plate appearances with a .255 average, .382 on-base percentage, and 21 runs batted in.
