Greinke probably never sniffs 300 wins, but the comparison is not too far fetched imo.

And yeah, I jinxed meche 100%, no comment about tomorrow's game

just looked over greg maddux's stats (not a huge baseball guy) and I was wrong, he's in a league of his own. whatever though, Greinke is gonna be a top 5 pitcher till he leaves KC

lol i obv dont mean i expect greinke to be the best rh pitcher of this generation, it was blatant hyperbole. he's got a similar style and i expect him to be very successful. no need to nit it up.

I think we should make a deal going forward with teams that if they let us skip the 8th inning we'll give them one run.

Since we're playing Detroit right now, I might have to go all GREEAR tonight and post after every other pitch.

Bottom of the 1st and thankfully they cleaned the lens of the center field camera. Nice start by Greinke. Let's get a hit here to take the lead and Zack can win this 1-0.

Zack just gets stronger as the game goes on. If it weren't for a bad break on a throw by Aviles, his scoreless streak would still be intact.

From fantasy sources I use, I was told to get Greinke, and got him at great value in both leagues.

I was expecting him to be good, but damn...he must have some nasty stuff. Don't watch the Royals, but lovin those box scores.

What's the deal on this guy in terms of his prospect value since coming to the league....thx.

I got my first chance to check out the new K tonight, very impressed. It really looks fantastic. They cancelled the fireworks because of wind, kinda bummed me out. I sat in the outfield box seats in right field, section 252. Buck night was a huge pain in the ass in terms of line. I **** you not, I waited 2 1/2 innings to get my 3 dogs and a beer
($9). Thankfully there was a plasma tv in the line so I didn't miss action. My friend's parents sat behind third base on the lower level and had no problems getting concessions, so it must be an outfield thing.

Greinke. Wow. Soria is out for 3-5 days too if you didn't hear.

I picked a bad night to check out the new K, 9-1. Come on Royals we are better than that! I also thought a tornado was going to drop down a couple times. On a good note the new K is very nice!

I guess it was too much to expect to sweep them in the first series like we did last year.

Yeah. You better just settle for taking 2 of 3, oh wait.....

Let's hope the Tigers can improve upon their 2008 5th place AL central finish when they were projected to score the most runs ever or something

I guess Trey has figured out a spot for Farnsworth - let him pitch with zero pressure.

Good to see Guillen get a couple of dingers. Lets hope hitting is contagious and they can score 5 or more runs the rest of this series.

Banny pitching effectively is huge. If he can keep this up, we might have one of the best rotations in baseball. Ponson isn't pitching poorly, he just needed a little support yesterday.

Sad to see the unearned run streak end, but this ump isn't doing Zack any favors tonight.

Butler getting his hit on though - a solo homer and a 2 RBI double.

And as I type this, Teahen crushes a 2 run homer.

Gonna head to the ballpark tomorrow for my first look at the new K. Will post a TR w/pics.

Cool, I'm trying to run good to maybe make a trip back to KC at the end of May to see it.
