The New York Yankees opted to bench Anthony Volpe for a few games as the young shortstop was mired in a slump. His stint on the bench appears to be reaching its end, however.
Manager Aaron Boone detailed the Yankees' plans at shortstop going forward, and made clear that the organization views Volpe as its starter at the position. Boone told reporters that Volpe would be back in the mix on Tuesday, meaning he'll be out of the lineup one last time for Monday's series opener against the Nationals.
