Claim 1: “By this time next week, Anthony Volpe could be ready to come off the injured list and rejoin the Yankees after October shoulder surgery.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim specifies a timeline ('By this time next week') that is not confirmed by the evidence. The web search results discuss his rehab progress and expected return timeframe generally (late April or early May), but none confirm a specific date of 'next week' following the surgery.

Claim 2: “He is expected to regain his starting shortstop job, which will send José Caballero to the bench, which will send a bench player packing.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim states that Volpe regaining his starting job *will* send Caballero to the bench and *will* send another bench player packing. While one web search suggests Volpe 'almost will be handed back his starting shortstop job' regardless of Caballero's role, this specific chain of events (Caballero to bench AND another player released) is not corroborated by multiple independent sources. The evidence suggests Volpe is expected back, but the roster implications are only mentioned in one context.
