Anthony Volpe is living the life he always wanted. Born in New York City, the lifelong Yankee fan has dreamed of one day replacing his idol Derek Jeter as the starting shortstop of the historic franchise. Drafted by the Yankees mere months after turning 18, Volpe’s star rose quickly, and he earned the starting job at short before the beginning of the 2023 campaign. Since then, Volpe has made one of the most storied jobs in all of sports his. After moving through a handful of different options at short in the years since Jeter’s retirement in 2014, Anthony Volpe has made it clear: He is the heir apparent.

Of course, beyond his excellent play and leadership, Derek Jeter was known for winning above all else. Volpe must bring a World Series title back to the Big Apple to truly take the mantle from the Yankee great. With Volpe about to make his World Series Debut, let’s take at some of his best cards to collect.
