The New York Yankees made the right call and decided not to manipulate Anthony Volpe’s time on duty.
The best prospect of the formation has made the club, according to what has been announced. In the last few minutes, he was seen taking photos in the field with his family.
In recent years, the club has often cut out big shortstops from the free agency market in order to make room for younger players.
And clearly, it starts with Volpe, who forced his hand by experiencing a superb training camp in 2023.
He really forced the hand of the Yankees, who had no choice but to keep him.
It was not specified, but everything indicates that he will be the starting shortstop in the game on March 30. It would be counterproductive to keep him in the Bronx otherwise.
The young man has the famous “little something special” looking at him. The New Jersey native, who grew up dreaming of being Derek Jeter, will have the chance to become an important piece of the puzzle.
Expect it to become a crowd favorite pretty quickly. After Didi Gregorius, Gleyber Torres and Isiah Kiner-Falefa (in particular), the Yankees hope to have their man to replace the great Derek Jeter.
Speaking of Jeter: Volpe is the youngest Yankees player to make it in New York since… legendary #2.
Let’s go.
- Charles Leblanc is able to show what he has in his body.
- The Blue Jays’ #1 prospect is doing well.
