The Yankees’ first round pick (30th overall) of the 2019 MLB Draft, Volpe is a shortstop out of The Delbarton School in New Jersey. MLB.com ranked him organization’s No. 9 prospect back in the Spring.
Volpe’s MiLB debut didn’t go as planned. He hit only .215/.349/.355 over 34 games and contracted mono.
He was likely ticketed for high-A Tampa, but when the season was wiped away by Covid, he had to settle for sandlot-style pickup games.
Volpe also has winning credentials, leading the USA Baseball 18-and-Under National Team to a gold medal at the Pan-American Championships and earning All-Tournament honors with a .459 batting average in nine games.
