Konnor Griffin Out, Carmen In — What Are the Pirates Doing?

On this episode of Bucco Brew, we break down the Pirates’ biggest late-spring roster decisions heading into Opening Day. Konnor Griffin is headed to Triple-A, Carmen Mlodzinski has officially claimed the fifth starter job, and the Pirates’ infield alignment is starting to take shape with Jared Triolo at short and Nick Gonzales and Nick Yorke in the mix at third. We dig into whether the Pirates made the right calls, whether they played it too safe, and what these moves say about how this team is trying to win right now. A lot changed fast, and there’s plenty to unpack before the season begins. *Get your tickets to the April 18th game in the NS9 Group: https://www.gofevo.com/event/Northshore9tailgate0418 Use Promo Code NS930 for 30% off your first order at https://www.defer.coffee Use Promo Code NS9 for 30% off your first order at https://www.gritily.com Use Promo Code NORTHSHORENINE for $20 off your first order at https://www.seatgeek.com LIKE and SUBSCRIBE with NOTIFICATIONS ON if you enjoyed the show!
