| Summary: Griffin’s speed jumps off the page, a true 70 runner with an elite first step that makes him a dynamic threat both in center field and on the bases. He covers ground with ease in the gaps and owns the kind of closing speed that erases mistakes. At the plate, the lefthanded hitter brings explosive bat speed and sneaky raw juice, though his hands can get noisy and there’s some inherent swing-and-miss risk in the operation. Even so, he’s shown the ability to keep the barrel in the zone and produce consistent contact when he stays on time. The offensive upside comes from his quick wrists and aggressive bat speed, giving him pull-side thump to go along with line-drive ability. Defensively, Griffin projects to stick in center with instincts and range that already stand out, while his arm strength is enough to keep runners honest. With his speed, athleticism, and improving offensive polish, he fits the profile of a disruptive table-setter who can impact the game in multiple ways. | |||||||||||
