Memorial Day weekend has arrived, and while in the real world it serves as the unofficial beginning of summer and a chance to get away for a long weekend, in the baseball world it serves as the first real benchmark of a 162-game marathon.
It still remains unrealistic to expect anyone to hit 62 home runs in a given season. That’s what makes it so monumental when it does happen. “I like [Holmes] not strictly in the ninth,” Boone said recently. “There’s going to be days where it does line up where he’s closing the game. But I like putting him in situations that we feel he can thrive in.”
Two things to keep in mind: Volpe was a slow starter during his minor league career, and the Yankees believe he has the baseball IQ to make adjustments well and the mindset to not get bogged down by the struggles. Rortvedt has started two of the Yankees’ six games since then, and has made the most of the opportunities. He went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in a win over the Reds on Saturday, and in, he walked in both of his plate appearances before being lifted for a pinch-hitter.
