Episode Details

Anthony Volpe shuts down rumors he’s refusing to play second base, calling them “B.S.” and reaffirming his willingness to play wherever the Yankees need him to win. The false story started after a broadcaster misheard him saying he’s a shortstop — a claim he never made — and later admitted he was wrong, planning to apologize. Volpe, recovering from shoulder surgery and back on the field since May, was initially told to prepare for shortstop, but with injuries elsewhere, the team considered him for second base — something he says he was surprised by but fully ready for. Despite working out at second on off days, he’s stayed at shortstop due to roster needs. A Gold Glove winner at shortstop, Volpe’s focus remains on helping the Yankees win a World Series, emphasizing his commitment to the team’s success.
