    Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Swats third spring homer

    Anthony Volpe went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's Grapefruit League win over the Orioles.Volpe went deep to left-center field in the sixth inning. The 23-year-old is tied for third on the New York Yankees with three long balls this spring and is tied for the team lead with three stolen bases. Volpe is batting just .200 in spring play, but he's locked in as New York's primary shortstop and appears slated to hit in the middle of the order on a near-everyday basis.

    Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Playing in spring opener

    Anthony Volpe is scheduled to start Friday in the New York Yankees' Grapefruit League opener versus the Rays, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.Aside from catcher Austin Wells, right fielder Aaron Judge and injured designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (elbow), the Yankees are expected to roll out a starting nine of their projected Opening Day starters in the first game of the exhibition slate. Volpe's placement in the lineup will be one to watch throughout the spring, as he had served as the Yankees' primary leadoff man leading up to the All-Star break last season before slotting between the fifth and ninth spot throughout the second half while Gleyber Torres ultimately took over as the team's table setter. Torres and last season's No. 2 hitter, Juan Soto, have since moved elsewhere in free agency, but their departures won't necessarily clear the way for Volpe to reclaim a spot atop the lineup. While Volpe offers excellent speed in the leadoff role, his .288 on-base percentage over 319 career games has made him a less palatable option. He'll at least be heading into the spring with some momentum following a strong playoff run this past fall in which he produced a .286/.407/.408 slash line to go with five steals in five attempts over 14 games, but Volpe will need to build off that small sample during the Grapefruit League to secure a prominent spot in the batting order.

    Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Notches 25th steal

    Anthony Volpe went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Nationals on Wednesday.The New York Yankees were mostly quieted by MacKenzie Gore and a trio of Washington relievers, but Volpe did well in collecting a pair of hits. The shortstop also recorded a stolen base, giving him 25 on the season -- one more than he recorded as a rookie last year. In additional to the theft total, Volpe has improved his batting average from .209 to .252 and reduced his strikeout rate from 27.8 percent to 22.0 percent, though he's also displayed less power, as he has just 11 homers through 133 games after going deep 21 times in 159 contests in 2023.
