Zack Granite Bio
Twins Video
Zachary Thomas Granite was born on September 17, 1992 in New York City.
The Minnesota Twins selected him in round 17 of the 2013 MLB Draft. He reached the Majors in 2017.
Granite played in 40 games for the Twins as a rookie. He slashed .237/.321/.290 with two stolen bases. His first big league home run came against Blaine Hardy of the Detroit Tigers on September 23, 2017 after entering earlier in the inning as a pinch runner. Minnesota batted around in the inning, allowing Granite to hit the league's first home run with the assigned position of "pinch runner" since Ryan Christenson on September 30, 2000.
The Twins included him on their roster for the 2017 AL Wild Card Game. Granite came off the bench and went 1-for-2 in their loss against the New York Yankees.
He spent all of 2018 in Triple-A, batting .211 for the Rochester Red Wings. Granite reported to camp with the Twins in 2019, but was designated for assignment after Minnesota signed free agent utility man Marwin Gonzalez in the middle of spring training. The Texas Rangers picked him up, and he spent all year in their farm system. Granite last played professionally in 2021.

BREAKING: Twins Flip Granite To Rangers
FORT MYERS, FL - The Minnesota Twins announced that they have acquired a minor-league pitcher, Xavier Moore, and cash from the Texas Rangers in exchange for outfielder, Zack Granite.
Who's the Fourth Outfielder?
It’s going to be a good battle for the fourth outfielder position. The Minnesota Twins still have a lot of questions to answer before the 2019 season, but one thing they probably don’t have to worry about is finding a fourth outfielder. The Twins currently have eight outfielders on their 40-Man Roster. That’s more than enough and by the end of Spring Training, that number will likely be lower as there are three players who will battle it out in the Spring for one position. The two players who fail to win that competition might have to be moved because they look like they are ready to be major league ballplayers.
