The Moment We've All Been Waiting For: Zack Greinke

      Tonight, we get our first look at Dodgers second ace, Zack Greinke. Zack, our most important off season pick up, will make his Dodgers debut against the Pittsburgh Pirates. In a race against the Texas Rangers, the Dodgers won the heart of Zack and it was not cheap. Before Felix Hernandez and Justin Verlander signed their mega contracts, Zack was the highest paid pitcher with with a six year, $158  million deal. With Kershaw and Greinke at the one-two spot, we expect the Dodger to be at the top of the NL West.
       Last year when he started with the Brewers, Greinke went 9-3 with a 3.44 ERA. After requesting a trade, Greinke was sent packing with to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. With the Angels, Zack went 6-2 with a 3.54 ERA. This year, Greinke hopes to get 20 wins and a low ERA. We have lots of hope with Zack Greinke and we expect him to have a phenomenal year wearing that Dodger blue.
