Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Scores once in return
Griffin went 0-for-3 with a run scored Friday against the Angels.
Griffin was activated from the 60-day injured list Friday and hit sixth in the order. He reached base on a fielder's choice in the second inning and scored from first base on a double by Jake Mangum, recording the only run of the game by either team. Griffin should be a mainstay in the Pirates' lineup, and he'll likely be aggressive on the basepaths even if he starts slowly at the plate while shaking off some rust.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Back from injured list
The Pirates reinstated Griffin (finger) from the 60-day injured list Friday, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.
The 20-year-old rookie has been on the shelf for two months due to a torn sagittal band on his left ring finger, but he looked healthy while going 3-for-11 during a three-game rehab assignment. Griffin has acclimated well in his first taste of the majors this year, posting a .276/.332/.404 slash line with five homers, 20 steals, 25 RBI and 35 runs through his first 59 big-league contests. He is starting at shortstop and batting sixth in Friday's series opener against the Angels.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Poised to return from IL on Friday
The Pirates are expected to activate Griffin (finger) from the 60-day injured list Friday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.
Griffin has rejoined the Pirates in Pittsburgh after going 3-for-11 in three rehab games, and he will return to the active roster Friday on the first day he's eligible. The rookie shortstop has been sidelined for the past two months with a torn sagittal band on his left ring finger. With Griffin taking back over at shortstop this weekend, Jacob Gonzalez could be mixed in some at third base down the stretch for the Pirates.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Moving rehab assignment to Triple-A
The Pirates will transfer Griffin's (finger) rehab assignment from Double-A Altoona to Triple-A Indianapolis beginning Tuesday, Dominic Campbell of SI.com reports.
On the shelf since July 6 due to a torn sagittal band on his left ring finger, Griffin is closing in on a return to the Pirates' active roster after he kicked off his rehab assignment over the weekend. In his lone game with Altoona on Sunday, Griffin went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts while playing seven innings at shortstop. The star rookie checked out fine after being evaluated by team trainers Monday and will now get a few more games under his belt at Indianapolis before likely coming off the 60-day injured list when first eligible Friday.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Plays seven innings in first rehab game
Griffin (finger) went 1-for-3 with a pair of strikeouts while playing seven innings at shortstop Sunday in his first rehab game with Double-A Altoona.
Griffin kicked off his rehab assignment Sunday in what was his first game action since landing on the injured list July 6 due to a torn sagittal band on his left ring finger. Per Jason Mackey of MLB.com, the 20-year-old will be in Pittsburgh on Monday for a pre-planned evaluation before the Pirates map out his next steps. Griffin is eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list Friday, and he could be reinstated on that day if his finger responds well over his subsequent rehab games.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Beginning assignment Sunday
Griffin (finger) will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Altoona on Sunday, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Griffin has been out since early July due to a torn tendon in his left ring finger, but after ditching his splint and ramping up baseball activities over the past couple of weeks, he's now ready to test his finger in a competitive environment. He'll likely require a handful of minor-league games after spending such a long time on the sidelines, but he should be on track to return sometime in early September.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Taking swings
Griffin (finger) took swings Friday as he continues to ramp up baseball activities, MLB.com reports.
Griffin is currently working out at the Pirates' facility in Florida. Manager Don Kelly didn't have many details, but he said the initial reports indicate the session went well. Griffin is trending toward a return in early September.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Cleared to ditch splint on injured finger
Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said Monday that Griffin has been cleared to transition out of the splint he had been wearing on his injured left ring finger, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Ditching the splint represents an important milestone in Griffin's recovery from a torn tendon in the finger, as he'll now be able to increase the intensity and volume of his baseball activities. Once the Pirates' homestand concludes Wednesday, Griffin is scheduled to report to the team's spring training facility in Florida to begin a hitting progression and playing catch. He'll likely remain in Florida for the duration of his rehab program before he's cleared to report to a minor-league affiliate to start playing in games. If all goes well, Tomczyk relayed that the Pirates are "optimistic" that Griffin will be ready to return to the big-league roster when he's first eligible to come off the 60-day injured list Sept. 4.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Taking part in baseball activities
The Pirates announced July 31 that Griffin (finger) has resumed participating in baseball activities, including playing catch and taking right-handed swings against a Trajekt machine, MLB.com reports.
Griffin is about four and a half weeks into a six-week immobilization period for his left ring finger sagittal band injury, but he'll still be able to do some light activities during that time. Once the six weeks are up around the middle of August, Griffin could be cleared for more intense workouts as he gears up for a potential return from the 60-day injured list in early September. While Griffin remains out, Jacob Gonzalez is expected to see the bulk of the reps at shortstop for the Pirates.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Moved to 60-day IL
The Pirates transferred Griffin (finger) to the 60-day injured list Saturday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
Griffin was given an 8-to-10-week return timeline when he landed on the injured list Tuesday with a torn tendon in his left ring finger, so the Pirates will stash him away on the 60-day IL, which makes him ineligible for activation until Sept. 4 at the earliest. The move opens up a spot on the 40-man roster to help make room for Brandon Eisert and Jacob Gonzalez, both of whom were acquired in a trade with the White Sox on Friday.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Out 8-to-10 weeks with finger issue
The Pirates placed Griffin on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a torn tendon in his left ring finger, Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Per director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk, Griffin will wear a splint for six weeks and is expected to be sidelined for 8-to-10 weeks. That puts the rookie on the shelf until early September, at minimum, which is a massive blow to the Pirates and Griffin's fantasy managers. Jared Triolo will likely handle the bulk of the playing time at shortstop for the Pirates while Griffin is out.

Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Dealing with torn finger tendon
Griffin has been diagnosed with a torn tendon in his left ring finger and could be sidelined for at least a month, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Griffin injured the finger while making a diving catch during Sunday's game against the Nationals. He remained in the contest to take two more plate appearances, striking out in one and delivering a two-run single in the other. Passan notes Griffin could opt to play through the injury, but the most likely option is to rehab it, which would shelve the shortstop for at least a month. If an absence is required, Griffin could spend about six weeks in a splint and be out until September, per Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com. The Pirates should have more information on Griffin's status prior to Tuesday's contest against Atlanta.
