Pirate spring training report: Can Nick Gonzales hold off Konnor Griffin in MLB roster projection?

Post-Gazette Pirates insiders Jason Mackey and Colin Beazley report from spring training in Bradenton, Fla. and offer their projections for the opening day roster before Grapefruit League exhibition games begin this weekend. Will Konnor Griffin secure a spot after his impressive arrival at camp? Or will Nick Gonzales be able to hold him off at shortstop for now? Will Nick Yorke or Enmanuel Valdez secure the final position player spot? Who's standing out within the group of Jose Urquidy, Hunter Barco, Carmen Mlodzinski and others for the fifth starer job behind Paul Skenes, Mitch Keller and Bubba Chandler? And will Mason Montgomery make it into the bullpen? Our duo tackles those difficult questions for GM Ben Cherington and manager Don Kelly, plus much more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
