DETROIT, AP — The Detroit Tigers agreed to a $5.3 million, one-year deal with left-hander Matthew Boyd.
The Tigers avoided arbitration with Boyd and all their eligible players.
Detroit also agreed to contracts for 2020 with left-hander Daniel Norris, right-hander Buck Farmer and outfielder JaCoby Jones.
Right-hander Michael Fulmer agreed to a $2.8 million deal earlier in the week.
The 28-year-old Boyd went 9-12 with a 4.56 ERA last season.
He was a bright spot for much of the year and finished sixth in the American League with 238 strikeouts.
However, he also allowed an AL-high 39 home runs.
Boyd's salary goes up from $2.6 million.
