The New York Yankees are reportedly on the verge of securing a replacement for shortstop Anthony Volpe, who hit 35 home runs last season, according to a report from Heavy.com. The potential move comes as the team evaluates its infield options for the upcoming season.
Volpe was spotted during batting practice on September 11, 2026, wearing a cap honoring first responders on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks before a game against the New York Mets at Yankee Stadium. Further details about the identified replacement have not been disclosed.
