MLB fans are excited about how far this bond will evolve.Aaron Judge is leaving no stone unturned to make a comfortable space for Anthony VolpeToronto Blue Jays v New York Yankees: NEW YORK, NY - APRIL 23: Aaron Judge #99 of the New York Yankees reacts after lining out against the Toronto Blue Jays during the sixth inning at Yankee Stadium on April 23, 2023 in the Bronx borough of New York City. The Blue Jays won 5-1. #Photo by Adam Hunger/Getty Images)New York Yankees icon Aaron Judge is truly displaying his leadership prowess. The reigning AL MVP is striving to make the 21-year-old rookie Anthony Volpe's journey with the Yankees a smooth ride.“It’s just what you do,” Judge said.Aaron added:“If he’s going to be the future and be the shortstop here for the next 15 years, you’ve got to have him up here now and just kind of getting used to it. If I was trying to put myself in his shoes, trying to compete at the major-league level, my eyes would have been wide, I would have been getting overmatched. It would have been a little frustrating.”Aaron was Volpe's age when he played for the Fresno State Bulldogs, Fresno State's NCAA Division I college baseball team.Anthony is the youngest NY Yankees shortstop since Derek Jeter made his MLB debut in 1995 at the age of 20.
