The Detroit Tigers agreed to a deal with former New York Yankees middle infielder Gleyber Torres, multiple outlets reported Friday.
ESPN reported it was a one-year, $15 million contract for the two-time All-Star, who turned 28 earlier this month.
Torres batted .257 with 15 homers and 63 RBIs in 154 games during the 2024 season, adding two homers and eight RBIs in 14 postseason games for the World Series runners-up.
The Venezuela native is a career .265 hitter with 138 home runs and 441 RBIs in 888 regular-season games over seven seasons in New York. He finished third in the American League Rookie of the Year voting in 2018 and made the All-Star team in 2018 and 2019.
Defensively, Torres played exclusively at second base for the Yankees in each of the past two seasons. He has made 601 career starts at second base and 233 at shortstop.
His arrival in Detroit means that Colt Keith could be asked to move from second base, where he started 125 games as a 2024 rookie, to third base.
