Tigers, Nick Margevicius Agree To Minor League Deal

By Anthony Franco | April 30, 2025 at 11:36pm CDT

The Tigers reached agreement with left-hander Nick Margevicius on a minor league deal, relays Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. The 6’5″ southpaw had been pitching in the Mexican League with the Tecos de los Dos Laredos.

Margevicius, 28, pitched in the majors each season from 2019-21. He suited up with both the Mariners and Padres, combining for a 6.12 earned run average in 110 1/3 innings. He split the following two seasons between the upper levels of the Seattle and Atlanta farm systems. Margevicius signed in Taiwan last year and worked to a 2.82 ERA with 86 strikeouts over 108 1/3 frames. He made the move to Mexico last winter.

The Mexican League is a tough landing spot for a pitcher. Margevicius pitched well over two starts there, though, allowing just two runs in 10 1/3 innings. While he only struck out seven of 42 opponents, he limited free passes (three walks and one hit batter) while managing solid overall results. It was enough to get him back to affiliated ball for the first time since 2023. He’ll look to improve upon a 4.55 ERA in 369 2/3 minor league innings over five seasons.

    If Nick Margevicius makes it back to the big leagues with the Tigers and does well – I’m talking about, just after a good late-season performance or two – it would be awesome to give him the nickname, “Vicious.”

    Sounds cool. The sort of thing teammates would call him. (Babe Ruth is “the Sultan of Swat,” but I doubt anyone called him that, or even “Sultan.”) And I don’t think any player in MLB history has ever had “Vicious” as his nickname.

      Or they could call him “Large Marge”

    This is the type of player I could see the tigers being able to turn around. I think there is a solid chance the tigers may convert him into a reliever if he struggles as a starter, and I think if he actually makes the big league team at some point, he will be used as a reliever most likely. I like this move.

      With the Tigers’ revamped talent acquisition and development team, I assume anybody they sign is going to pan out.

    Tigers can see around corners with a lot of these down and out relief pitchers.

    Big, athletic frame.
    Harris likes jocks that actually look like jocks. Tends towards big dudes. I agree.
