Jack Flaherty Elects to Stay With Tigers

Jeff Passan of ESPN reports that Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty is not opting out of his $20 million contract for the 2026 season, according to sources. Flaherty will return to Motown, where he has played in each of the last two seasons. The 30-year-old veteran began the 2024 season in Detroit before being traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers for the second half of the season, where he eventually ended up winning a World Series title. He returned to the Tigers in 2025 to go 8-15 with a 4.64 ERA (3.85 FIP), 1.28 WHIP, and 188:59 K:BB in 161 innings over his 31 starts. Flaherty didn't exactly have the season he wanted -- he led the league with his 15 losses -- but a bounce-back certainly could be in the cards in 2026 if he can stay healthy. At the very least, Flaherty's above-average strikeout rate is appealing, even if he has been inconsistent.

Jack Flaherty Strikes Out Nine in Wednesday Start

Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty turned in a solid start in the second game of a Wednesday doubleheader against the Washington Nationals. In the 9-4 loss, Flaherty allowed three runs on five hits over five innings of work while walking two and striking out nine. He escaped with a no-decision while notching 16 swinging strikes in the outing. The veteran had a brutal June, posting a 6.84 ERA in the month, so his first July effort was definitely a step in the right direction. Overall, Flaherty has a 5-9 record, 4.84 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 109 strikeouts across 89 1/3 innings of work in 2025.

Jack Flaherty Hit Hard in Loss

Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty (5-7) stumbled to his seventh loss of the season in an 11-1 blowout against the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday. Flaherty entered the day riding a streak of four straight quality starts, but the Reds proved too much to handle. They pummeled Flaherty for seven runs on five hits, including three homers, in just 4 2/3 innings. Flaherty also struggled with control, totaling five walks against three strikeouts. The 29-year-old has posted a decent 4.03 ERA and 90:28 K:BB over 76 innings, but he has mixed in a few clunkers. Saturday's start ranks as his worst of the year. He'll attempt to rebound on the road against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday.

Jack Flaherty Tosses Six Shutout Innings

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jack Flaherty was once again sharp on the mound during Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Flaherty retired the first nine batters he faced as the Cubs had no answers for him. The right-hander put himself in trouble in the fourth inning, but he was able to work through it without any problems. Flaherty finished this outing by tossing six shutout innings, allowing two hits, three walks, and striking out nine batters in the win. Flaherty has now tossed three straight outings of one earned run or less. He'll take a 3.41 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 85 strikeouts into his next start against the Cincinnati Reds.

Jack Flaherty Secures Second Straight Victory

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jack Flaherty allowed four hits and one earned run over six innings of work in Monday's 13-1 rout of the Chicago White Sox. The former first-round pick walked one and struck out four to notch his second straight win and third straight quality start. The lone tally against him came just before he exited the contest when Vinny Capra scored teammate Chase Meidroth on a groundout to shortstop. Flaherty has now pitched four consecutive appearances yielding three runs or less, lowering his ERA (3.72) and WHIP (1.09) to much more palatable figures. He'll carry a 4-6 record over 12 starts (65 1/3 innings) into his next outing -- a road matchup with the visiting Chicago Cubs later this week.

Jack Flaherty Shuts Down Giants in Victory

Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty (3-6) shut out the Giants over six innings on Tuesday to pick up his third victory of the season. Flaherty yielded a mere two hits (both singles) and racked up eight strikeouts against one walk during the 3-1 win. It was the best outing of 2025 for Flaherty, who has gotten back on track since a rocky three-start stretch from April 28-May 10. In three starts since then, Flaherty has combined for 18 1/3 innings of five-run ball with 10 hits allowed and 22:5 K:BB. The 29-year-old owns a respectable 3.94 ERA with a lofty 72 punchouts and just 19 walks through 59 1/3 frames this season. He has a favorable matchup against the Chicago White Sox next Monday.

Jack Flaherty Strikes Out Nine On Wednesday

Detroit Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty turned in an excellent start in a 4-3 loss to the New York Yankees on Wednesday. Flaherty tossed 5 1/3 scoreless innings while striking out nine and walking three. The veteran hurler had to settle for a no-decision, however, as he departed with the game still scoreless. Flaherty has been dominant over three starts for the Tigers this season, posting a 1-0 record, 1.62 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, and 21 strikeouts over 16 2/3 innings of work. His next start is scheduled against the Milwaukee Brewers on the road on Tuesday.

Jack Flaherty Returning To Detroit On Two-Year Contract

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, starting pitcher Jack Flaherty is returning to Detroit on a two-year contract worth $35 million. This deal contains an opt-out. Flaherty will earn $25 million during the first year. The 29-year-old began the 2024 season with the Tigers before being traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers at the trade deadline. Across 106 2/3 innings with the Tigers, Flaherty performed quite well, holding a 2.95 ERA with a 0.96 WHIP. He struck out 133 batters and showed elite command as he only served up 19 free passes. He would then go on to win a World Series with the Dodgers. Through 55 1/3 innings with the Dodgers during the regular season, Flaherty held a 3.58 ERA with a 1.28 WHIP. Under the hood, the right-hander generated an impressive 29.9 percent strikeout and a 5.9 percent walk rate, both well above the average marks. Fantasy managers should target Flaherty when looking for strikeout upside and to improve their WHIP ratio, as he has elite command of his pitches. He is expected to be the No. 2 option in the rotation behind Tarik Skubal.

Padres Would Target Jack Flaherty, Nick Pivetta If They Trade A Starting Pitcher

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, the San Diego Padres would target Jack Flaherty or Nick Pivetta in free agency if they trade Dylan Cease or Michael King. Both Cease and King have been around trade discussions throughout the offseason and have begun to see their market begin to heat up over the past week. The Chicago Cubs and New York Mets have been reported to have shown interest in both of these pitchers. However, Heyman noted that if the Padres were to trade one of these, they would look to target a replacement. Last season, Flaherty spent time with the Tigers before moving to Los Angeles to win a World Series. Across 162 frames, Flaherty struck out 194 batters with a 3.17 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP. Pivetta logged 145 2/3 innings with a 4.14 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP. He struck out 172 batters with a strong 6.1% walk rate.

Jack Flaherty Could Sign Short-Term Contract

According to Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic, free agent right-handed pitcher Jack Flaherty may opt to sign a short-term contract this offseason. Flaherty has been viewed as one of the top starting pitchers on the market all offseason but has yet to find a suitor. Rosenthal noted that teams may want to see Flaherty post two strong seasons before signing him up for a longer-term contract. Flaherty enjoyed a nice bounce-back season in 2024, posting a 3.17 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP across 162 innings. However, in 2023, he held a 4.99 ERA and a 1.58 WHIP. The last time Flaherty posted two straight seasons holding an ERA of 3.50 or less was during the 2018 and 2019 campaigns. The 29-year-old carries high strikeout upside in 2025 but carries some risk, given that he has not sustained this success for an extended period of time. If Flaherty were to enjoy another strong season in 2025, he would then be a highly coveted asset on the open market entering the 2026 season.
