Griffin was Paul Toboni’s first free-agent signing as Nationals president of baseball operations. In December, Griffin inked a one-year contract worth $5.5 million and up to $1 million in incentives.
Griffin joins shortstop CJ Abrams and outfielder James Wood representing the Nationals at the All-Star Game. Abrams is the first Nationals player to start in the Midsummer Classic since Bryce Harper in 2018.
