Anthony Volpe Nears Return With Double-A Rehab Assignment

Anthony Volpe is set to begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset this Tuesday as he nears a return to the Yankees' active roster. Sidelined with a shoulder injury, Volpe’s months-long stay in Tampa is nearing its end. Brian Cashman has been candid about the team's plan for the shortstop. The Yankees will monitor his progress and comfort level during the stint before determining a firm date for his activation to the major league infield.
