The top prospect arrives for his MLB debut as New York shuffles its infield depth chart.
The Yankees promoted top prospect George Lombard Jr. for his MLB debut, per report, moving shortstop Anthony Volpe to the minors ahead of the move. The timing comes after a quiet trade deadline for New York, leaving the roster largely intact heading into the stretch run.
Volpe, 23, has been the team's primary shortstop this season. Lombard's arrival signals a shift in the infield depth chart as the Yankees prepare for the final two months of the season.
