Yankees' Tyler Lyons: Remains with Yankees
Lyons re-signed Wednesday with the Yankees on a minor-league contract.

During the 60-game 2020 campaign, Lyons made one appearance out of the New York bullpen, giving up four earned runs over 1.2 innings.

Yankees' Tyler Lyons: Contract selected by Yankees
Lyons' contract was selected by the Yankees on Tuesday.
Lyons has spent the entire season at the alternate training site, but he'll join the active roster for the first time in 2020 after right-hander Michael King was optioned to the alternate training site. It's unclear whether he'll remain with the team during a potential postseason run. The southpaw is likely to take on a low-leverage bullpen role.

Yankees' Tyler Lyons: Could make club if rosters expand
Lyons would be an option for the Yankees' bullpen if MLB expands rosters at the start of the season, Brendan Kuty of NJ Advance Media reports.
Lyons signed a minor-league deal with the Yankees in January and was not expected to break camp with the club. However, the southpaw pitched well this spring, hurling 4.1 scoreless innings and racking up seven strikeouts. That performance, along with Lyons' experience and left-handedness, could tilt the scales in his favor should MLB opt to expand rosters, as is widely expected.

Pirates' Tyler Lyons: Joins Pirates on MiLB deal
Lyons signed a minor-league contract with the Pirates on Monday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Lyons had an abysmal 2018 season with the Cardinals, posting a 8.64 ERA, 1.91 WHIP and 19:8 K:BB over 16.2 innings. The 30-year-old was actually a solid bullpen piece the previous two seasons with a 3.09 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 10.1 K/9, and the Pirates will undoubtedly hope he can regain that form in 2019.
