Yankees: Anthony Volpe’s rise will convince team to part with Gleyber Torres in offseason

Little did anybody realize, but the New York Yankees will soon have the ability to replace Gleyber Torres on this roster, whether it be internally or via free agency.

Last Monday, Torres was moved off of shortstop because of his endless struggles on defense, which forced manager Aaron Boone to reshuffle the infield again … just when we thought there’d be a more solidified picture when the injuries and COVID absences went away.

Boone believed moving Torres back to second base would help take the pressure off the young slugger, but he’s already made more defensive gaffes in his seven games there than anyone could’ve imagined.
