Triolo had already covered shortstop in the Pirates' last three games, and he'll now be in line for a longer leash at the position after Pittsburgh moved Konnor Griffin (forearm) to the injured list Sunday. Per Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Pirates general manager Ben Cherington said that he anticipated a short-term stint on the shelf for Griffin, so Triolo could end up shifting back into a utility infield role as soon as the second week of June. After a strong finish to the 2025 campaign, Triolo hasn't carried over that success to 2026, slashing just .231/.268/.256 with no home runs, two steals, four runs and four RBI across 83 plate appearances.
