Yankees Test Ryan McMahon at Shortstop Amid Volpe Recovery
Anthony Volpe started dry swings in rehab and aims for an April return after left shoulder surgery following a tough 2025 season with the Yankees, team officials said.
- On Feb. 17, 2026 in Tampa, the Yankees shortstop began dry swings and says a return in April is realistic, with rehab ongoing.
- Playing through a torn labrum, Anthony Volpe, Yankees shortstop, had left-shoulder arthroscopic labral surgery in mid-October after doctors found more damage than expected.
- Rehab will progress through tee work and soft tosses, moving to batting practice with medical clearance to dive before minor-league rehab games.
- The Yankees say they still believe in Volpe, who turns 25 on April 28, while Caballero and Lombard Jr. create shortstop competition during rehab.
- Having turned a corner around Jan. 1, Volpe says his return in April remains uncertain as he progresses in rehab, with another chapter expected by then.
