The Detroit Tigers signed right-hander Tim Belcher to a $3.4-million, one-year contract Monday.
Belcher, the 70th of 90 free agents to sign, will be eligible for free agency again after the World Series.
Belcher, 32, was 9-6 with a 4.47 earned-run average for the Cincinnati Reds last season before being traded to the White Sox, with whom he was 3-5 with a 4.40 ERA.
