Second baseman Gleyber Torres has wrapped up his free agency journey by signing a one-year, $15 million contract with the Detroit Tigers. According to Chris McCosky of The Detroit News, Torres turned down multiyear offers from other teams, opting instead for Detroit.
McCosky reports that Torres received offers from the Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Angels before deciding to join the Tigers. Notably, his former team, the New York Yankees, did not make an offer. "I’ve got great friends there, great communication with the entire organization," Torres said of his time with the Yankees. "I feel proud of myself for being with the Yankees for seven years, but now I’m with Detroit and just really happy they gave me the opportunity to play next year. I think they have other priorities and I’m not on the list. I’m good."
