MLB insider sends harsh warning to Yankees\u2019 Anthony Volpe, but it\u2019s fair<\/a> originally appeared on The Sporting News<\/a>. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The New York Yankees<\/a> made the decision they did with Anthony Volpe<\/a>, and there isn’t a whole lot more to say about it in terms of that. However, there’s a lot to think about for the future of both him and this organization, and I’d be a bit surprised if that includes him being on the big league roster long-term.<\/p>\n

The Yankees will have to decide whether moving on from him via trade would make sense or keeping him down in the minor leagues until they figure something out.<\/p>\n

Regardless, it definitely sounds like Volpe has gotten a warning about his future in Major League Baseball, at least with the Yankees, and MLB insider Jon Morosi had some thoughts about that.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we\u2019re in July and Volpe is still in the minor leagues and the Yankees are still winning games and there\u2019s a player out there that they need, and I\u2019m another team that doesn\u2019t have a long-term shortstop, I would like to see how Volpe looks as a potential long-term shortstop somewhere else,\u201d Morosi said on MLB Network, H\/T Heavy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause if Caballero is the guy, for now and maybe even the next several months, potentially into next year, what about George Lombard Jr. coming along?\u201d<\/p>\n

As Morosi mentioned here, there are many factors that could eventually come into play. Not only is Jose Caballero<\/a> playing very well right now, but Volpe also has to worry about youngster George Lombard Jr. coming up and eventually taking his job.<\/p>\n

I don’t think Volpe is going to play a whole lot in New York moving forward, though that isn’t something I thought just a few days ago.<\/p>\n
