WATCH: Viral Video Shows Yankees Telling Anthony Volpe He Made Opening Day Roster

Sunday afternoon, the New York Yankees' official Twitter account posted a candid video the club captured of manager Aaron Boone and executive Brian Cashman telling top shortstop prospect Anthony Volpe that he made the Yankees' Opening Day roster.

Sunday, the New York Yankees announced that top prospect Anthony Volpe will open the 2023 Major League Baseball season at the Major League level with the New York Yankees. Volpe is the no. 5 prospect in all of baseball, according to MLB.com.

Sunday afternoon, the Yankees' official Twitter account posted a candid video the club captured of the moment manager Aaron Boone and executive Brian Cashman told Volpe he had made the Yankees' Opening Day roster.

"Alright, this is a difficult conversation to have to have," Boone said to Volpe. "Because you came in and you played your ass off. And we talked about it at the start of this, it being a competition, and you killed it. But at the end of the day, you got 20-something games in Triple-A. There's always room for development, but at the end, I think that development should happen in the big leagues. Welcome to New York."

Boone and Cashman each congratulated Volpe, who was elated. He will likely make his Major League debut Thursday against the San Francisco Giants.
