I'm really excited to also talk about the number one prospect in baseball, and that is Conor Griffin of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The floor is yours because I could ask a ton of questions about why this guy is so incredible, but I'll let you, uh, take it away. You know how sad it made me to not have Connor Griffin or not have Kevin McGonagle at #1, given how high we've been on him for so long, but I, I, I always just boil it boiled it down to this, like, we put out the top 100 midseason update at the end of July. Conor Griffin was #2. From August 1st onward, Connor Griffin, at 19 years old. At AA mostly hit 351 with a 988 OPS stole a trillion bags, hit 8 homers, and was playing plus defense at shortstop while also mixing in in center field where he looks like he could be a good defender. I, it's just crazy stuff. I was talking to our guys at Buck O'Banner who host the the the Pirates podcast on our network, and I was like, what's, what do you think the positional, you know, split's gonna be for him? And he, he, he said that Connor had mentioned on the show to them that the, the Pirates would have him play center field, like they kind of said, you'll you'll play center field when you're slumping, like, just so we can, you know, just change it up for you and and refresh things. Well, he never slumped, so then they just kind of threw him out into center field just once or twice a week. But you're talking about. Plus plus power, you know, and I think he's still tapping into more, even though he hit 21 home runs this year, plus plus speed, the ability to play a good center field, cutting down on the strikeout rate as the season progressed, as an 18 year old, 19-year-old with those tools to strike out from June onward, like sub 20% with an OPS nearly of 1000, and there's still more power to tap into there. There he he is that. Tool set and production at an age that you don't expect it already, that is reminiscent of some of the best prospects we've seen of the Bobby Witts and guys like that. And that's why you just, you can't deny him as, you know, the number one prospect is a true five tool potential star.
