Yankees' Anthony Volpe Leads MLB in Errors, Boone Considers Bench Amid Defensive Slump
The New York Yankees are struggling defensively with shortstop Anthony Volpe, who leads the league with 15 errors and has been the subject of growing frustration from fans, commentators, and even Yankees manager Aaron Boone. Boone continues to support Volpe, calling him a talented Gold Glove player with mental toughness, but acknowledges the shortstop is in a slump and needs to improve on routine plays. Volpe's defensive struggles have turned otherwise manageable games into challenges, with costly errors in recent matchups, such as against the Tampa Bay Rays, drawing sharp criticism and calls for Boone to consider benching him to protect the team’s playoff hopes. Despite Volpe’s offensive contributions, his defensive miscues have overshadowed his performance, prompting the Yankees to acquire new infielders like Ryan McMahon and Amed Rosario to shore up the defense. Boone remains indecisive about benching Volpe but admits the team must overcome these issues quickly as they trail in the AL East standings. The situation highlights a critical moment for Boone’s management and Volpe’s career, as the Yankees seek to balance loyalty with the urgent need to win.
