Yankees' Volpe Out With Shoulder Injury; Trade Possible

New York Yankees shortstop Anthony Volpe was held out of Sunday's lineup against the Tampa Bay Rays after injuring his left shoulder during a diving play in Saturday's 3-2 loss. Volpe felt a 'pop' in his shoulder but remained in Saturday's game following strength tests and a negative X-ray, though further evaluation, possibly including an MRI, is expected. Oswald Peraza started at shortstop in Volpe's absence. The Yankees, already missing Jazz Chisholm Jr., DJ LeMahieu, Gerrit Cole, Luis Gil, and others, are hopeful Volpe avoided a serious injury but remain uncertain about his return. Volpe is batting .233 with five home runs and 19 RBIs in his third season. If the team's infield injuries continue, New York may consider trade options such as acquiring Toronto's Bo Bichette.
