Konnor Griffin’s meteoric rise has fantasy baseball managers buzzing—could the Pittsburgh Pirates’ top prospect be this year’s breakout gold? Dominick Martino and Matthew Ahne examine Griffin’s path to the majors, his elite combination of power, speed, and plate discipline, and whether he can emulate early-impact phenoms like Julio Rodríguez and Mike Trout. The debate heats up over shortstop rankings 13-24, as they dissect Kevin McGonigle’s MLB readiness and the contrasting organizational philosophies of the Pirates and Detroit Tigers regarding service time and roster control.

The hosts spotlight high-upside names including Colson Montgomery of the Chicago White Sox and Jackson Holliday of the Baltimore Orioles, weighing floor vs. ceiling in your infield picks. Veteran options like Willy Adames and Trevor Story are assessed for reliability versus breakout potential, with hot takes and strategic insight for dynasty and redraft leagues. Can one of these rising stars power your championship run this season?
