Before getting hurt, Griffin was crushing it — hitting .270 with 4 homers and 14 steals — and his late-season surge pushed his average to .317. His absence stung, as the team stumbled without him. But after a cautious, thorough recovery that included pausing his throwing program, Griffin silenced doubts with a monster rehab game: 2-for-2, a HR, a triple, and 3 RBIs. He’s immediately back in the leadoff spot, with infielder Jack Brannigan heading back to Double-A. This is exactly the spark Pittsburgh needs to climb the standings.
