The Detroit Tigers signed right-handed pitcher John Brebbia to a one-year contract with a club option for the 2026 season.

Brebbia, 34, will earn a base salary of $2.25 million during the 2025 campaign, and an additional $4 million if the Tigers pick up his option for 2026. The deal comes with a $500,000 buyout if the option is not exercised, making $2.75 million is guaranteed.

This season will be Brebbia’s eighth in the majors after he spent time with the St. Louis Cardinals (2017-19), San Francisco Giants (2021-23), Chicago White Sox (2024) and Atlanta Braves (2024).

The deal includes $2 million in performance bonuses for both seasons — $250,000 each for 50, 55, 60 and 65 appearances, and $250,000 for 40, 45, 50 and 55 games finished.

Escalators for the 2026 option — capped at $4 million — include $500,000 for 65 appearances, $1 million for each 45 and 60 games pitched, and $2 million for 55 games finished. The 6-foot-1 righty appeared in a career-high 76 games for the San Francisco Giants in 2022.

Brebbia is 15-21 in 354 career games (21 starts) with a 3.80 ERA and 1.214 WHIP. With 388 strikeouts over 355 innings pitched, the new Tiger has recorded four saves and finished 90 games.

In 2024 with the Sox and Braves, the reliever was 0-6 with a 5.86 ERA across 59 games. He had two saves and 67 strikeouts over 55.1 innings.

Detroit placed reliever Alex Lange (lat) on the 60-day injured list to make room on the 40-man roster.
