Zach Greinke, Kansas City Royals
4 1/3 IP, 15 H, 11 R, 11 ER, 2 BB, 2 K, 3 HR
Greinke was one of the hottest rookie pitchers to come out of last season. So much so, a lot was expected from him this year. I know in our APBA league, he was the first pick in our rookie draft.
Well, after this outing, his ERA is now at 6.01.
The ironic thing is that he did not get the loss as KC came back to force the game to go to extras.
I traded Mark Buehrle for the first draft choice to pick Zack Greinke. Other hurlers I’ve sent packing off my APBA Baseball team include Roy Halladay, Jake Peavy, Jon Garland, Kip Wells, & Kris Benson. A long time ago I dealt Tom Glavine to the Baseball Zealot’s team in exchange for washed up by then Kirk Gibson.
Teddy Ballgame is my farm system.. :)
