December 2, 200520 yr In my humble opinion, Grant was the team's MVP last year. He wasn't the fastest guy or the strongest, but he hit for average, power, and with great bat control. Grant has a great eye at the plate, he follows the ball into the catcher's glove, a la Jeter or Mattingly formerly. His hands at third were excellent, and was voted the best defensive third baseman in the SALY League last year(by Baseball America). He was also a mid-season All-Star, and won the Homerun Derby there. There was another player on the Suns last year(Dante Brinkley) that had more of an impact on the team, because of his off-field/clubhouse leadership, but I personally felt Psomas was the best player at his position last year for the Hagerstown Suns, taking everything into consideration(hitting, power, hit-n-run, driving in runs, walks, base-running, arm, hands, instincts). I'm no scout, just a broadcaster, but I really liked Grant as a player, and if I had to guess, I think he could be a late season call-up by September 2007.
