Pirates agree to terms with veteran outfielder Tommy Pham on 1-year deal

By Canadian Press on February 6, 2025.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates have agreed to terms with veteran outfielder Tommy Pham on a one-year deal worth $4.025 million.

The deal is pending Pham, who turns 37 next month, passing a physical.

The signing is the most notable free agent acquisition by the Pirates, who have been relatively quiet during the offseason. Pittsburgh re-signed designated hitter Andrew McCutchen in December, traded for first baseman Spencer Horwitz and signed second baseman/outfielder Adam Frazier last week.

The well-traveled Pham gives the Pirates another potential option to join Bryan Reynolds and Oneil Cruz in the outfield. Pittsburgh is Pham’s 10th stop during his 11-year career.

Pham split the 2024 season between the St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals, hitting a combined .248 with 20 doubles, nine home runs and 39 RBIs.
