It would probably require over $200 million, maybe $250.

But I don't know if the Pirates are going to do that.

I don't know if they want to invest that soon before he makes his debut.

But that's what teams around Major League Baseball are doing.

You're seeing it all over the sport, whether it's Corbin Carroll or Junior Caminero, you know, Colt Keith.

Teams around Major League Baseball are signing these guys.

I think Roman Anthony signed shortly after his debut with the Red Sox.

You're seeing teams sign their top prospects, guys that look like can't miss stars.

The Pomp And Joe Show
1PM - Kevin Gorman spoke to Henry Davis about changes in his stance, Griffin talk; The pros and cons of having Konnor Griffin on Pirates Opening Day roster

They're signing them to long-term deals even before they do debut or shortly after, trying to lock them up long-term so that you have kind of a franchise opportunity.

superstar to build around.

And I certainly think that's how the Pirates view Connor Griffin.

And if they haven't thought about doing that, they certainly should because they missed their opportunity to do that with Skeens.

And now we're kind of counting the days of how long the Pirates are going to have Paul Skeens.

1PM - Kevin Gorman spoke to Henry Davis about changes in his stance, Griffin talk; The pros and cons of having Konnor Griffin on Pirates Opening Day roster

And I certainly think that if you bring up Griffin now, he's surrounded by enough talent that the expectations aren't going to be too heavy for him.

1PM - Kevin Gorman spoke to Henry Davis about changes in his stance, Griffin talk; The pros and cons of having Konnor Griffin on Pirates Opening Day roster

I don't think anybody's going to say this is a guy that is the franchise savior and he has to carry the team.

The Pomp And Joe Show
1PM - Kevin Gorman spoke to Henry Davis about changes in his stance, Griffin talk; The pros and cons of having Konnor Griffin on Pirates Opening Day roster

He can certainly just be a guy who is a complimentary piece to a team that now has a lot of veterans and a lot of guys with some pop in the back.

Yeah, that's a good question.
