海盗队将20岁的新秀康纳·格里芬从2026年开幕日名单中剔除，选择在小联盟培养他，尽管他2025赛季表现强劲。 The Pirates left 20-year-old prospect Konnor Griffin off their 2026 Opening Day roster, opting to develop him in the minors despite his strong 2025 season.

匹兹堡海盗队已经将20岁的前球员科纳尔·格里芬从2026年首场比赛中排除在外, 将他送到小联盟春季营. The Pittsburgh Pirates have excluded 20-year-old top prospect Konnor Griffin from their Opening Day 2026 roster, sending him to minor league spring camp. 尽管在双A队的2025赛季中,他打出了337分21个本垒和65次抢篮,但格里芬在春训期间却扎不前,43场比赛中的击球平均值为184分,11次失误. Despite a standout 2025 season at Double-A, where he hit .337 with 21 home runs and 65 steals, Griffin struggled in Spring Training with a .184 batting average and 11 strikeouts in 43 plate appearances. 球队优先考虑他的长期发展,而不是早期的MLB征集, 这一策略与他们对保罗·斯肯斯 (Paul Skenes) 的处理类似. The team is prioritizing his long-term development over an early MLB call-up, a strategy similar to their handling of Paul Skenes. 虽然延期合同可以加速他的晋升, 海盗队正专注于培养他们的年轻人才在竞争力阵容中. While a contract extension could accelerate his promotion, the Pirates are focusing on nurturing their young talent amid a competitive roster.
