Summary
Pirates welcome back Konnor Griffin, who’s officially cleared from the 10-day IL and set to play Friday against the Reds after a forearm strain sidelined him. Before getting hurt, the 20-year-old was crushing it — .270 AVG, 4 HR, 14 SB in 51 games, and his last 32 games saw his average soar to .317. He’s also been a standout at shortstop with a high fielding percentage and looked elite in a rehab game, going 2-for-2 with a HR and triple. To make room, Jack Brannigan was sent down to Double-A. Griffin’s return is a huge boost — the Pirates expect him to hit the ground running. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
