Grant previously pitched with IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., but now attends the same Georgia Premier Academy that produced first-rounder Daniel Espino in 2019. Grant is an athletic righthander with a 6-foot-3, 210-pound frame who has shown a solid four-pitch mix including a low-90s fastball that has touched 95-96, a low-80s slider, upper-70s curveball and mid-80s changeup with good fading life. He started the high school game at the 2023 draft combine, where he generated whiffs with his fastball/slider/changeup combo and pitched in the 91-94 mph range. His slider showed good turn and finish at times, but the pitch was inconsistent in both shape and biting action, whereas his fading changeup was a consistent weapon and a real right-on-left bat-misser. Grant is committed to Mississippi State. His father, Michael Grant, was a professional heavyweight boxer with a career 48-7 record.
