He has not been good.

He has been borderline terrible as a Major League Baseball player.

I'm rooting like hell for him to be the franchise shortstop for the New York Yankees.

But it hasn't worked out so far.

And this is the make or break year for him coming back from this injury.

And what is that line exactly for Anthony Volpe to prove that he can get this job again in 2027 when he's never had an OPS above 690?

Is it just cracking 700?

Does it need to be 725?

Does it need to be 750?

Does it have to be closer to 8?

What do we need to see out of him?

I'll tell you one thing, if that OPS, once healthy, is still below 700, you got it.

figure something out for 2027.

You cannot run this back again with Anthony Volpe at shortstop.

You just can't do it.

If he's shown improvement and it's even 7-10, 7-15, then maybe I'm starting to believe that there's something there and we can give him another year to build.

But he's got to show that improvement this year.

This is it, man.

We cannot run it back again in 2027 with Anthony Volpe after having another sub-700 OPS.

as the New York Yankees shortstop.
