Griffin Conine Fantasy Stats

Miami Marlins first baseman/outfielder Griffin Conine is not flashy by any means, but he could help fantasy managers down the stretch in September as a left-handed-hitting outfielder against right-handed pitching in the right matchups in deeper leagues. Going into Thursday's game against the Kansas City Royals, Conine entered play with a career-high 14 home runs and 32 RBI in 72 games (238 plate appearances) while hitting .254/.357/.488 with an .845 OPS. Conine has limited overall fantasy appeal because of his struggles against southpaws -- he is hitting only .178 (8-for-45) in limited exposure against lefties. He was nothing special in August, either, going 18-for-80 (.225) in 26 games, although he did have five home runs and 11 RBI after hitting six homers in 25 games in July. The 29-year-old former second-rounder by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2018 out of Duke also still strikes out a third of the time, although he is sporting a career-high 12.2% walk rate in 2026. At best, Conine is worth a look off the waiver wire in deeper fantasy leagues to close out the season. He is rostered in under 10% of Yahoo leagues.

Miami Marlins outfielder/first baseman Griffin Conine's 2026 season got off to a rough start, as he suffered a hamstring injury in early April that required surgery and sidelined him for over two months. However, the 29-year-old has quietly put together a very strong season since returning to the Marlins lineup in late June. Across 217 plate appearances on the year, Conine is slashing .259/.355/.513 with 14 home runs, 31 RBI, 30 runs scored, and two stolen bases. The lefty masher has struck out in 30.3% of his plate appearances and has hit just .190 with zero home runs against left-handed pitching, both of which limit his upside. However, his 15.3% barrel rate and 53.3% hard-hit rate both support his high-end power production. For fantasy managers searching for power on the waiver wire, Conine profiles as an under-the-radar target.

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (hamstring) will undergo a hamstring tendon excision next week. The 28-year-old will have the operation done in Dallas by Dr. Dan Cooper, resulting in him missing extensive time. The announcement came a day after he was placed on the 10-Day Injured List, though he will undoubtedly miss much more than the minimum time here. In fact, the timeline for a return to play would be anywhere between six and eight weeks, resulting in him missing a large portion of the first half of the season. In his absence, the Marlins will likely continue to platoon players in left field, using both Javier Sanoja and Heriberto Hern ndez. However, with Kyle Stowers currently on a rehab assignment, he could very well take over in left field upon his return as well.

The Miami Marlins announced on Friday that they placed outfielder Griffin Conine (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a left-hamstring strain and recalled infielder Deyvison De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move. This was the likely course of action after Conine injured his hamstring while diving for a ball in the outfield in the team's win over the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should expect Conine to miss more than the required 10 days on the IL. The 28-year-old former second-round pick by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2018 out of Duke was hitting .273 (6-for-22) with two home runs, four RBI, six runs scored, and two stolen bases in 11 games before going on the shelf. With Conine, Kyle Stowers (hamstring), and Esteury Ruiz (oblique) all on the IL currently, Heriberto Hernandez figures to be a prime beneficiary of extra playing time for the Fish going forward. De Los Santos has intriguing raw power, but finding regular playing time in Miami could be an issue.

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (knee) will likely be placed on the 10-day injured list after injuring his left knee in Thursday's win over the Cincinnati Reds, according to Daniel Alvarez-Montes of El Extra Base. The Marlins are calling up first baseman Deyvison De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville to replace Conine on the active roster. Conine came up lame on Thursday while diving for a ball in left field and limped off the field with a trainer. The severity of his knee injury is unknown, but it looks like he'll at least miss the next 10 days. The 28-year-old former second-round pick by the Toronto Blue Jays in 2018 out of Duke came into Thursday's action hitting .300 (6-for-20) with two home runs, four RBI, six runs scored, and two stolen bases, and he went hitless in two at-bats before departing the game. Heriberto Hernandez replaced Conine in left on Thursday and could see more playing time in the outfield with Conine on the IL.

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (knee) left Thursday's game early against the visiting Cincinnati Reds with left-knee discomfort, according to the Marlins' broadcast. Conine injured his left knee while attempting to make a diving catch in left field in the top of the sixth inning and got up gimpy before eventually walking off the field under his own power with a trainer. We should know more about the severity of his injury following the game. Before getting hurt, Conine was hitless in his two at-bats. He was replaced in left field by Heriberto Hernandez. Conine came into Thursday's game hitting .300 (6-for-20) in his first 10 games in 2026 with two home runs, four RBI, six runs scored, two stolen bases, two walks, and six strikeouts. The 28-year-old has been relatively healthy in his professional career before suffering a shoulder subluxation in 2025 that required surgery. He played in just 54 games in the majors in his first two seasons with the Fish, hitting five home runs and driving in 20 in 175 plate appearances.

Miami Marlins corner outfielder Griffin Conine is learning first base this spring, according to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. It's the same position his father, Jeff, played for most of his 17-year MLB career. The Marlins could use some depth at the position since Graham Pauley and Liam Hicks have limited experience there. In addition to Conine, Christopher Morel and Connor Norby are working at first base to give the Fish more options. Miami's outfield is already heavy on left-handed bats with Kyle Stowers, Jakob Marsee, and prospect Owen Caissie. If the 28-year-old adapts well to the position in spring training, it's possible he could make plenty of starts there in 2026. Conine only played in 24 games in Miami last year due to a dislocated shoulder that required surgery, and he went 20-for-79 (.253) with two homers and eight RBI. He had a nice 48.1% hard-hit rate, 14.8% barrel rate, and 117.4 mph maximum exit velocity in a short sample size, so he could become interesting as a depth outfielder in deeper fantasy leagues this year if he can carve out enough playing time at first base.

The Miami Marlins announced that they have activated outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list. Conine is returning at the expense of outfielder Derek Hill (hamstring), whom the Marlins activated from the 10-day IL and designated for assignment. Expectations were that Conine would miss the rest of the 2025 campaign after he dislocated his shoulder in April and underwent surgery. However, after a successful recovery that included a nine-game rehab assignment, the 28-year-old will make it back for the final week of the regular season. Conine, the Marlins' starting right fielder on Opening Day, slashed .281/.352/.438 with a homer, seven RBI, and 10 runs scored over 20 games and 71 plate appearances before he suffered the injury.

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder) is expected to stay with the club's Triple-A affiliate in Jacksonville for the remainder of the Triple-A regular season, according to manager Clayton McCullough, which wraps up this Sunday. After that, he could potentially rejoin the big league club for a series that begins Tuesday in Philadelphia, although the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp are in the Triple-A playoffs, so he could log a few extra games there as well before rejoining the Marlins. The 28-year-old has been working his way back from surgery on his left shoulder and hasn't played in the big leagues since April. Through six rehab games at Triple-A, the former second-round pick is 5-for-16 (.313) with a double, two home runs, and a 5:7 BB:K. Whenever the left-handed slugger returns, though, he's not a realistic option in most leagues for the fantasy baseball playoffs.

Miami Marlins outfielder Griffin Conine (shoulder) has begun a throwing program as he recovers from season-ending surgery on his left shoulder, Kevin Barral of Fish on First reports. Conine, who dislocated his shoulder on April 19, threw from 60 feet on Tuesday and will increase the distance by 15 feet every other day. The 28-year-old expects to be cleared for full swings with the bat in three to four weeks, and he should be ready for the Arizona Fall League or an international winter league. Conine debuted in 2024 and has amassed just 160 plate appearances since then, but he has hit a productive .274/.338/.445 with four home runs and 19 RBI. If healthy, he'll have a good chance to earn a roster spot next spring.
