The Yankees have received INF Kyle Holder as a Rule 5 Draft return from the Cincinnati Reds and assigned him to the Alternate Site.

26 year old infielder Kyle Holder, who was a 2015 first round draft pick by the Yankees, returns to the Bronx after spending 2020 with the Reds.

Holder was selected by Philadelphia in the 2020 Rule 5 Draft and traded to Cincinnati on 1/30/21.

Kyle Holder was selected by Philadelphia with the 11th overall pick in major league’s rule 5 draft in December and was dealt to the Reds in January for cash considerations.

Holder put up .219/.359/.250 in 39 plate appearances this spring, nothing to be too particularly impressed with.
