The Detroit Tigers reportedly reached a deal with free agent outfielder Justin Upton late Monday night.

Upton, who has quite a bit of pop in his bat, will be a nice addition to Miguel Cabrera, Victor Martinez and J.D. Martinez.

Upton hit 26 home runs in 2015. Below are his three longest home runs from the 2015 campaign.

3. Upton hit a 422 foot home run off David Holmberg on August 10, 2015 in the fourth inning.

2. Upton's second longest came against Tsuyoshi Wada and the Chicago Cubs in the fourth inning on May 20, 2015. The ball traveled 424 feet.

1. Upton's longest home run of the season happened on September 15, 2015 and traveled 449 feet against Jhoulys Chacin and the Cincinnati Reds.

Upton's longest home run of his career was a 478 foot shot off Chris Carpenter of the St. Louis Cardinals on April 12, 2011 when he was a member of the Arizona Diamondbacks.
