The Tigers and infielder/outfielder Matt Vierling ($3.255 million), catcher Jake Rogers ($3.05 million) and right-handed pitcher Beau Brieske ($1.1575 million) have agreed to terms on one-year contracts for the 2026 season, thus avoiding salary arbitration. Andy Ibáñez has been non-tendered. The remaining 32 arbitration-eligible and pre-arbitration eligible players on the club's 40-man roster were tendered contracts for the 2026 season.
News has yet to come down about the Tigers' heavier hitters — Greene, Torkelson, Carpenter, Will Vest, Zach McKinstry, Casey Mize and, of course, Tarik Skubal. Mize has a history of disagreeing with the Tigers on arbitration figures; he and the team couldn't come to an agreement in the 2023-2024 offseason and quibbled over just $25,000. The Tigers should be hoping to avoid any such messiness this season.
Detroit's 40-man roster now stands at 39 players.
