The New York Yankees have added Florida outfielder Blake Cyr to their system, selecting him in the 18th round of the 2026 Major League Baseball Draft held on Sunday.
The Bronx Bombers made their move in the later stages of the 2026 MLB Draft on Sunday, picking Blake Cyr, an outfielder hailing from the University of Florida. Cyr's selection came in the 18th round, adding a new prospect to the Yankees' farm system.
Cyr brings his talents to the storied franchise after a collegiate career that saw him emerge as a notable player for the Gators. His addition signals the Yankees' ongoing efforts to scout and acquire talent through the annual draft process, aiming to build for the future.
A solid if unspectacular pick in the 18th round. Cyr has tools, but the Yankees are banking on significant development to make him a major league contributor.
