    What's up with Grienke?

    The guy went from an Ace to like a bum......

    His numbers suggested some regression this year, besides playing in a hitter friendly park now. Hard not to take the bait on that line though

    This is clearly an elaborate ruse by Greinke to get traded back to LA.

    Highest paid player in baseball with social anxiety issues.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Just another in a very long line of bad mlb contracts to guys on wrong side of prime. Add to that his mental issues and Zona gonna pay dearly for this one. Maybe not Hamilton/Halo bad but it will hurt plenty!

    he also has a below avg defensive/pitch calling/framing catcher to go along with that hitters park, just wreaks of a disappointing year.

    Grienke will struggle at home. That's a hitters park and zona d sucks in comparison to the Dodgers d behind grienke last year.

    He got greedy and left for the money. Diamondbacks will feel it when they are paying him in excess of 30 mil for an above average pitcher.

    Same weather in Phoenix and LA. I think is the baseballs. Notice that the balls carry much longer than years before. MLB is tinkering with the balls to increase scoring.

    went from a pitcher friendly park to hitter friendly conditions and had a better defense behind him in LA vs. his current team....not seeing this change in results a big shock.

    People are cursing out his wife on twitter. Always good to see that kind of backlash.

    hes been a head case for many years. Didn't like playing second fiddle to Kershaw. He wanted to be the ace
