Kansas City Royals hurler Zack Grienke has another big win to his name: the Cy Young Award. The right-handed ace dominated at the ballot box, taking home 25 out of 28 of the first place votes. Felix Hernadez came in second, with just two first-place votes. Grienke won not the number of his wins -- his season record is a resptecable but not awe-iducing 16-8 -- but instead on his jaw-dropping ERA numbers. Grienke finished the season with a ERA of 2.19, leading all of Major League baseball. It's...Read Full Story

Zack Greinke was 8-11 with a 3.81 ERA entering September last year. The wheels came off the wagon in September though as he went 2-3 with a 5.92 ERA to raise his season mark to 4.05. Will that happen again this year or will he continue to pitch effectively?

If the way he’s pitched this summer is any indication, the latter will hold true. Since the start of July Greinke is 6-2 with a 2.70 ERA. It’s hard to imagine somebody pitching that well to suddenly go cold, especially the way he...Read Full Story

At what point do we bring up a pitcher's scoreless streak without jinxing him? Do we keep it to ourselves? Whisper it to the dude sitting next to us? Write a giant cover story about it? That is, if you believe in that sort of thing. The same question arose when reading about Kansas City Royals ace Zack Greinke 's long string of goose eggs all over the internet this week, just days before he gave up his first earned run in 43 innings on Wednesday. It took only two batters: a double by Marco...Read Full Story
Meet Zach Greinke, one of the best young pitchers in all of baseball. Greinke would have already put together a couple All-Star-like seasons had he not had some setbacks. Matt Clapp from the eloquently-named blog; Sharapova's Thigh, details Greinke's journey and his battle against depression. If I'm MLB, I'm highlighting Greinke's accomplishments much more so than someone who was able to put down the crack pipe.

Zack Greinke Player Projection No. 61 | Fantasy Baseball Hot Stove
It's great to see Zack Greinke getting the love he deserves. He was one of the most unlucky pitchers in 2011, and yet one of the most dominant. Among the league leaders in K/9 and BB/9. I am expecting more of 2009. I will be investing as a solid #1.
