WORCESTER, Mass. \u2014 Anthony Volpe started at shortstop for Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday night.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Beyond that, Volpe doesn\u2019t have many answers after being optioned to the minors following his rehab stint as he returns from offseason surgery on his left shoulder.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While many were surprised the Yankees optioned the 25-year-old<\/a> in favor of keeping Jos\u00e9 Caballero at shortstop in The Bronx, Volpe said: \u201cI don\u2019t know. There are things I can control [and] things I can\u2019t. I\u2019m ready to go here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

And although he remained at short against Triple-A Worcester at Polar Park in a 7-6 loss in which he went 2-for-4 with a double, the Yankees haven\u2019t ruled out the possibility of moving Volpe around the infield \u2014 especially given the presence of George Lombard Jr. on the SWB roster<\/a> as the prospect shoots through the minor league system, still a month away from turning 21.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WORCESTER, Mass. \u2014 Anthony Volpe started at shortstop for Triple-A Scranton\/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday night.\u00a0 Beyond that, Volpe doesn\u2019t…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":776456,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[5243,6335,179547,1266,2228,62,2225,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-776455","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-anthony-volpe","9":"tag-exclusive","10":"tag-minor-leagues","11":"tag-mlb","12":"tag-new-york-yankees","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-sports-plus","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-unitedstates","17":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116525739821119712","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776455","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=776455"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776455\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/776456"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=776455"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=776455"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=776455"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
