Now that Yankees’ No. 1 prospect Anthony Volpe has secured the opening day shortstop gig, it was time for him to pick a new number. Though #77 has something cool about it, it’s not very often you see a middle infielder repping such a high number. Now, fortunately, we have a new number to buy of his, and some Yankees fans that have been fans for the past decade or so will be very happy to see what he’s switching to.
