The top remaining free agent pitcher has a new home.
Framber Valdez has agreed to a three-year, $115 million contract with the Tigers, The Post’s Jon Heyman confirmed.
The deal includes an opt-out after year two.
The deal has the highest average annual value ($38.3 million) for a left-handed pitcher in MLB history, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.
The Blue Jays were among several teams interested in Valdez as recently as Tuesday, The Post’s Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman reported then.
But it’s the Tigers, who already have two-time defending Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal in the rotation, who land Valdez.
