Here’s what people were saying about Volpe being out of the lineup:
@Barishn22: “Oh now you rest Volpe. Cabby ain’t hitting, Volpe hits RHP well. Don’t sit him against Gray.”
@stillwaiting73: “Ya he had 3 + AB’s vs. Sonny last time. I get the idea of more LHP, but this is a Head scratcher. Also Cab’s been dinged up. Can’t run 100%.”
@Deppuygr: “No volpe LETS GO”

Their recent cold streak has dropped them a half-game back of the Tampa Bay Rays.
Right now, the Yankees are 48-34 in 82 games.
