The Miami Marlins signed veteran right-hander Chris Paddock to a one-year contract on Thursday.<\/p>\n
Terms were not disclosed, \u200bbut MLB Network reported the former \u200cfree agent\u2019s deal is valued at $4 million and includes an additional $500,000 in incentives.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a return to the Marlins organization for Paddack, 30, \u200cwho \u200bwas drafted by Miami \u2060in the eighth round \u2060in 2015 but was traded to San Diego the next year.<\/p>\n
He split last season with Detroit (12 games) and Minnesota (21 \u200bappearances), going 5-12 with one save, a 5.35 ERA and one save \u2060in a career-high 158 \u2060innings over 33 games (28 starts). \u200bHe led the American League with 94 earned \u200bruns allowed.<\/p>\n
Paddack is 32-36 with one \u200csave, a 4.64 ERA in 118 games (110 starts) with the Padres (2019-21), Twins (2022-25) and Tigers.<\/p>\n
In a corresponding move to make room \u2060on the 40-man roster, the Marlins placed right-handed reliever Ronny Henriquez, 25, on the 60-day \u2060injured list. \u200cHenriquez had Tommy John surgery \u2060on his right elbow after \u200bthe \u200c2025 season and is expected \u200bto miss \u2060all of the 2026 campaign.<\/p>\n
