Griffin’s Injury Slows Pirates’ Push | Pittsburgh Pirates News
from Pittsburgh Pirates News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Pirates’ rising star Konnor Griffin’s rookie season just hit a major bump—he’s sidelined for a month with a torn tendon in his left ring finger, the latest in a string of injuries that’s already cost him 22 games. The 20-year-old, who’s been playing well since returning from a forearm strain, was hurt making a diving catch against the Nationals, and despite a trainer’s check, he finished the game. With a .276 average, 5 homers, and 25 RBIs, Griffin’s been a bright spot for a Pirates team clinging to a wild card spot—now he’s out until early August, adding to the team’s injury woes that also include Oneil Cruz and Spencer Horwitz. A tough blow for a young player trying to make his mark in a playoff race. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
