Yankees Pull Volpe Back to the Minors in Strategic Reset

TL;DR Summary
The Yankees reinstated Anthony Volpe from the 10-day injured list and immediately optioned him to Triple-A, a surprising pivot after years of backing him as the future shortstop. With Volpe’s hitting struggles and Jose Caballero thriving, New York is giving Volpe regular minor-league playing time while delaying his free agency to 2029 by surpassing the 20-day minor-league threshold, preserving long-term control and keeping Volpe in the mix for a potential return to the majors in 2026.
