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.
