Last year or the year before it he had a great start. He went something like 11-0 and people considered him to be the Cy young winner but then he had a rough 2nd half of the season. I did thought Greinke was a phenomenal pitcher.
This year however, i see his record is 4-10. His ERA is around the 4 and yes last year and the year before that the Royals never gave him run support. However, the Royals average the most runs in baseball yet he has a poor record. Now I think Zack Greinke is a good pitcher but now I'm starting to 2nd guess if he is overrated. He has gotten crushed many times this year and his team scored a decent amount of runs for him.
I mentioned how Jake Peavy was the most overrated pitcher in baseball because he pitched at Petco and is horrible away from Petco and cannot pitch against AL teams and that is clearly shown this year. Also because many considered him an elite pitcher which i think was the biggest joke i ever heard about elite pitchers.
However, there is something about Greinke that makes me feel he is a bit overrated but not like that fraud Jake Peavy. He now has run support yet he is 4-10 and has a 4.01 ERA. Does anyone else think he gets way more respect than he should? Now i think he is a decent pitcher but i think he gets way too much praise even though many don't consider him an elite pitcher.
