## Yankees GM Brian Cashman Attempts to quell Furor Over Struggling Top Prospect **New York City** - Brian Cashman, the general manager of the New York Yankees, recently attempted to quell the furor surrounding top prospect Anthony Volpe Volpe, who was considered one of the best prospects in baseball, has struggled mightily this season. He is currently batting .215 with 9 home runs and 34 RBIs in 100 games. Cashman said he believes Volpe is still a talented player and that he is confident that he will eventually reach his full potential. "I know there has been a lot of concern about Anthony," Cashman said. "But I want to assure everyone that we still believe in him. He's a young player who is still learning and developing. He's going to have some ups and downs, but I'm confident that he's going to be a very good player for us." Cashman's comments come after Volpe was demoted to the minors last week. The demotion was seen as a sign that the Yankees are losing patience with Volpe. However, Cashman said that the demotion was not a punishment. He said that the Yankees simply want Volpe to get more regular playing time. "We just felt like he needed to get more regular playing time," Cashman said. "He's not going to get that here in New York. So we sent him down to the minors where he can play every day." Cashman said he hopes that Volpe will be able to return to the Yankees later this season. He said that the Yankees are still counting on him to be a key part of their future. "We still believe in Anthony," Cashman said. "We're not giving up on him. We're going to support him and help him reach his full potential."
