Overview

  • Volpe completed his third rehab game with Double-A Somerset, logging a hit, a walk, a stolen base, and two runs over five innings as he ramps back from left-shoulder labrum surgery.
  • He said he feels great in the recovery, noting his swing now feels consistent after playing through shoulder pain last season.
  • He notched his first rehab hit in his second game, finishing 1-for-3, in a matchup that YES Network and the Gotham Sports app carried for fans.
  • The Yankees scheduled him for back-to-back minor league games before a day off and a planned Sunday start, with a likely move to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre next to increase workload.
  • Team officials and outside reports place his MLB return in the last week of April or the first week of May, with Jose Caballero filling in at shortstop until Volpe is cleared.
