Pham, 36, adds depth to a Pittsburgh outfield that includes Bryan Reynolds, Andrew McCutchen and Oneil Cruz and also provides veteran leadership to a young club.
Pham has been on clubs that reached the postseason five times over the course of his career, including the last two seasons — first with Arizona and then Kansas City.
Pham found a home late in the offseason but still earlier than last winter, when he signed a minor league deal with the White Sox in April.
The Athletic was first to report the agreement.
