Konnor Griffin, Pirates in "Deep" Negotiations for Long-Term Contract
The Pittsburgh Pirates are currently in "deep" contract discussions with top infield prospect Konnor Griffin. Griffin is the No. 1 prospect on MLB.com and nearly broke camp with the MLB roster despite not taking a single at-bat at the Triple-A level. Buster Olney of ESPN reported that the current contract proposals are "close to the range" of the eight-year, $111 million contract the Diamondbacks signed former top prospect Corbin Carroll to in 2023. During spring training, the former ninth overall pick from the 2024 MLB Draft launched four home runs but carried a modest .184 AVG, which resulted in his move to Triple-A. However, Griffin has wasted little time making an impact in his first taste with Indianapolis, going 6-for-13 with three doubles and two stolen bases over his first four games. Griffin remains a must-stash prospect in all formats as he would possess elite five-category upside once he reaches the major leagues.
