Griffin Near Return, Pirates Pushing | Pittsburgh Pirates News
Description
Konnor Griffin is inching back toward the Pirates’ big league roster after a two-month injury layoff, showing strong rehab performance with a 1-for-3 day and two strikeouts in his first Double-A game — now moving up to Triple-A. Despite missing nearly half the season due to a nagging finger injury, the young shortstop still boasts a solid .276 batting average, seven homers, and 25 RBIs, plus 20 stolen bases before the setbacks. Signed to a massive nine-year, $140M extension just months ago, the Pirates are counting on him to help turn things around as they chase postseason hopes with just one month left — and he’s expected back for the Angels series starting Friday.
