The Philadelphia Phillies and reliever Jeurys Familia agreed to a one-year, $6-million contract, according to Mike Puma of The New York Post.
The deal can reportedly be worth as much as $7 million.
Familia is familiar with pitching in the National League East, spending 10 seasons with the New York Mets.
The former All-Star racked up 94 saves over a dominant two-season stretch in New York between 2015-16, including a league-leading 51 saves in 2016.
The 32-year-old will look to stabilize a Phillies bullpen that struggled again in 2021 after finishing 25th in MLB in ERA, according to FanGraphs.
Familia owns a career 32-25 record with 125 saves and a 3.28 ERA in 499 appearances.
