2026 MLB Rookies Ready to Shake Up the Game: Who Will Become the Next Superstar?

2026 MLB Rookies Ready to Shake Up the Game: Who Will Become the Next Superstar?

In spring training, the 6-4 Griffin wasted little time at all in showing the Pirates and the baseball world why he just might be ready for the big leagues. He crushed home runs in the first two at-bats of his third game, sending a curveball 374 feet to left field, then an 0-2 breaking ball 440 feet to left at a scorching 111.2 mph.

Sure, the No. 9 overall pick in the 2024 MLB Draft doesn’t turn 20 years old until April 20, but he might be just too good for the Pirates to keep him in the minor leagues for all of 2026. All Griffin did in his first pro season in 2025 was slash .333/.415/.527/.941 with 21 homers, 23 doubles, four triples and 94 RBI across all three levels.
