Yankees top prospect Anthony Volpe has looked terrific throughout spring training. So good, in fact, that despite only playing a handful of games above Double-A, he’s convinced at least one teammate he’s ready for the big leagues.
But once the 21-year-old finally lands in the Bronx, can he stick at shortstop? One American League scout doesn’t think so. Once the dust settles, they think Volpe will make his mark in the big leagues as a second baseman. It comes with a decent comparison, too (via New York Post):
He’s always reminded me of Dustin Pedroia.
