Anyone who has lamented Jack Flaherty’s inconsistency of late didn’t have much reason to stop following Sunday.

Flaherty rejoined the Tigers on a two-year, $35 million deal this past offseason, which includes a player option for 2026. Given his recent struggles—and the fact that this contract was the best offer he received last winter—he’s likely to pick up the $17 million option and return to Detroit next season.
