The Detroit Tigers have made several huge moves this offseason, but the collective upgrades to their bullpen could prove to have the biggest impact of any of their acquisitions. On Monday afternoon, the Tigers raised some eyebrows across baseball when they brought back left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin.

The Detroit Tigers signed free-agent left-hander Andrew Chafin to a minor-league deal on Monday that includes a non-roster invite to major-league spring training. Chafin began last year with the Tigers but also spent time with the Texas Rangers.

Hill, a right-handed pitcher, signed a minor league contract with the Mariners this week, according to the team. He will join the team in spring training. Hill became a free agent in November, 2024, ending a seven-year stint with the Tigers organization.
