The Pittsburgh Pirates announced Thursday they are promoting 19-year-old shortstop Konnor Griffin, MLB's No. 1 overall prospect, for his major league debut in Friday's home opener against the Baltimore Orioles at PNC Park. Griffin, the No. 9 pick in the 2024 draft, slashed .333/.415/.527 with 21 home runs and 65 stolen bases across three minor league levels last season. The move addresses early struggles at shortstop for the 3-3 Pirates.
Tristan Gray delivered his first career grand slam to secure a 10-4 victory for the Minnesota Twins over the Tampa Bay Rays in their home opener on Friday. The 30-year-old journeyman collected five RBIs in the game, including a sacrifice fly earlier. Gray now has eight RBIs in four games this season, nearing his previous major league career total.
