Tigers Eye Free Agents: Bregman, Bellinger, Suarez on Radar

Following their American League Division Series Game 5 elimination, the Detroit Tigers are setting their sights on improving the team for the 2026 season. The front office is reportedly targeting several prominent free agents to fill roster gaps and enhance their playoff contention.

Alex Bregman, a player previously linked to Detroit, has once again hit the free agent market after a solid 2025 season where he batted .273 with 18 home runs and 62 RBIs. The Tigers had previously offered him a contract, but he opted for another team. This time, Detroit aims to secure his commitment.

Additionally, the Tigers are exploring options to bolster their bullpen and outfield. Robert Suarez, a reliever with 40 saves in 2025, is a top target for late-inning relief. Outfielder Cody Bellinger, known for his plate discipline and power, with 29 home runs in 2025, is also on their radar as a potential fit, offering versatility across multiple positions.
