 Marquis Grissom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grissom played baseball at Florida AandM University, and in 1988, the Montreal Expos selected him with the 76th overall pick in the June draft, as part of that draft's third round.
Grissom's production declined as he spent three seasons with the struggling club, and a trade in the spring of 2001 made him a Los Angeles Dodger, sending Devon White to the Brewers in return.
Grissom continued to struggle that year, but he enjoyed a strong bounce-back season as a part time player in 2002, and as a free agent he subsequently attracted the attention of the San Francisco Giants, who had just been defeated in the World Series.
