The post Yankees’ Brian Cashman sounds off on Anthony Volpe’s miserable season appeared first on ClutchPoints.The New York Yankees have won three straight games, stopping their horrendous summer slide with a series win against the Seattle Mariners.
After earning a Gold Glove Award in his rookie season and batting .243 last year, Volpe is batting just .219 with a career-low .963 fielding percentage at shortstop this season. While the Yankees might have hoped for another positive step from the shortstop, he has seemed to take a step back in virtually every facet of the game.
What is Volpe in Year 3 with the Yankees? A complicated player to evaluate whose value is likely overstated internally.
Brian Cashman fully acknowledges Anthony Volpe's struggles during the first half. But the long-time Yankees GM has full faith in Volpe to snap out of it in the second half.
