Image Source: Getty Detroit Tigers fans can breathe a little easier as key bullpen arm John Brebbia is expected to be available for tonight's game against the Boston Red Sox. After spending nearly three weeks on the injured list with a right triceps strain, Brebbia was officially activated on May 9 and is now ready to rejoin the team as they continue their strong start to the 2025 season. With the Tigers currently leading the AL Central, Brebbia's return comes at a pivotal moment. John Brebbia's quick return to the lineup Back in April, John Brebbia was placed on the 15-day injured list for tightness in his throwing arm. Fortunately, the strain remained slight, and his rehab went smoothly. Armed with that, he made two appearances with Triple-A Toledo, where he threw with velocity and command as if he had never been injured. Coming into the previous Tigers series, his activation was a clear indication among fans that he was good to go, in full clearance from the team doctors. As of May 13, there were no reported setbacks or restrictions, meaning Brebbia would be fully available tonight in the bullpen against Boston. Not that the team would rush to pitch him in two games in a row just yet; it's more about freeing manager A.J.

Tigers sign RHP John Brebbia to 1-year deal with club option
February 13 - 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.
