text: Sure she had better hitting percentage but Mau was far more important component to the team's success than Granite ever showed in a whole season (you do realize Mau had double the digs of Grantor and a far superior all around game). When I say the BEST player, it encompasses all factors, not just hitting. In a lot of games last year, Grantor had a ton of hits, did that make her a best player that night? Far from it. See, all you limited knowledge fans have such a narrow perspective and go all gaga over a specific number and not the overall impact. Actually, I really have nothing against Grantor and wish her all the success, and agree with you that she will have a more "mature" game this year. What I'm opposed to are illogical "if" pretenders who engage in fantasy, completely separated from factual data.
