After being unable to fully recover from an injury, this former A's, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher has called it a career
, former big league reliever for the A's, Philadelphia Phillies, and Los Angeles Dodgers has announced his retirement from Major League Baseball.
In December of 2021, Cyr landed a minor-league deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. He would start the year in Triple-A Lehigh Valley, where the right-hander tossed 36 innings and posted an ERA of 2.50, which would earn him his first call-up. Just a few days later, the A's took a flier on the intriguing arm that looked solid with the Phillies' Lehigh Valley affiliate by claiming him off waivers. After just five innings with the A's Triple-A affiliate, the club elected to call him up. He looked like a promising arm, as he joined the team in September with not much season left. He accumulated 13 innings with Oakland where he posted a 2.08 ERA with 16 strikeouts and allowed just three runs.
"I want to extend my deepest gratitude to my family, coaches, teammates, and, of course, the fans who have supported me throughout my journey. I am so incredibly thankful for the opportunities I’ve had and the memories I’ll carry with me forever.
