Anthony Volpe's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

New York Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe hit his sixth home run of the season and swiped his ninth base of the season on Thursday. The 23-year-old wasted no time as he launched a lead-off home run, which ended up being the game-winning run. Then, in the second inning, he hit a single and stole second base. After struggling in his rookie season last year, the former top prospect is clearly beginning to find his footing at the major league level. Across 44 games this season, he has posted a .273/.348/.432 slash line, which is significantly higher than his .209/.283/.383 line last year. Volpe was a 20/20 player last season and is on pace to repeat that feat this season. He has also consistently batted in the leadoff spot of a great Yankees lineup behind Juan Soto and Aaron Judge, which has done wonders for his counting stats. Volpe should continue to be a mainstay in your fantasy lineup all summer and is a solid choice in DFS in any matchup.

New York Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe is starting at the 6 and is in the leadoff spot on Wednesday versus left-hander Ryan Weathers and the visiting Miami Marlins. Volpe hasn't hit higher than sixth or seventh in the batting order to this point in 2024, but he'll flip with second baseman Gleyber Torres in this one (Torres is hitting sixth). The 22-year-old youngster held his own in his rookie campaign in 2023 and has been even better so far in his sophomore season, going 15-for-40 (.375) with three doubles, two home runs, six RBI, three stolen bases and 10 runs scored in the first 11 games of the year to earn a move up to the leadoff spot. Volpe will probably see more time atop the Yankees' batting order if he continues to rake, which would be music to fantasy managers' ears in all formats.

New York Yankees shortstopAnthony Volpehad an excellent game in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. He went 3-for-4 with two runs and two stolen bases in Sunday's victory. Volpe is off to a scorching hot start to the season, slashing .424/.486/.606 with three stolen bases while plating nine runs over nine games. A breakout season is on the horizon for Volpe, as he is making better contact and striking out less thus far in 2024. Fantasy managers can expect Volpe to steal bases and plate runs for a loaded New York Yankees offense. Look for Volpe to continue his hot hitting in a three-game series against a weakened Miami Marlins rotation starting Monday.
