NEW YORK -- Anthony Volpe rejoined the New York Yankees on Thursday when second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. was placed on the 10-day injured list with a sprained right thumb. Volpe, who lost his shortstop job to rookie George Lombard Jr., was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before Thursday night's series finale against Colorado. Chisholm was placed on the IL retroactive to Wednesday.

A Gold Glove shortstop as a rookie in 2023, Volpe played 19 games at second base for the Rail Riders and hit .524 with three homers and six RBIs in his last six games. After being optioned on Aug. 4, he hit .295 with 10 homers and 21 RBIs in 27 games.

Volpe's season debut was delayed until May 13 after surgery last October to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder. He entered Thursday batting .240 with one homer and 19 RBIs in 56 games.

Chisholm has spent time on the IL in each season since being acquired from Miami in July 2024.
