Yankees Bring Back Paul Blackburn on One-Year Deal

New York re-signed Blackburn to a one-year, $2M deal. He finished 2025 in pinstripes after a mid-August release by the Mets. After a rough debut, he allowed two earned runs over his final 12 innings with a 14:2 K-BB. The right-hander projects as middle or long relief, plus rotation depth in 2026 following improved late-season command there.
