Yankees are calling up 21-year-old shortstop prospect Lombard, the team’s future at the position, known for elite defense and blazing speed. His MLB debut is set for Tuesday against the Cardinals, following roster moves that sent down Anthony Volpe and brought in Heliot Ramos. A first-round pick in 2023, Lombard’s dad played in the majors and now coaches — baseball runs deep in his veins. Scouts say he’s ready to contribute immediately with solid contact and game-changing defense, even if he’s not expected to be a power hitter right away. He’s hitting over .260 with extra-base hits in Triple-A — watch him make an impact.
