Taking over for injured Griffin

Triolo will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Twins.

Analyse

Triolo covered shortstop the last three games, and he's in line for a longer run at the position with Konnor Griffin (forearm) moving 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 2025, he hasn't had much success in 2026, slashing just .231/.268/.256 with no home runs, two steals, four runs and four RBI across 83 plate appearances.
