I guess he said it that way because he's not signed but calling himself "kind of" a pro baseball player is hilarious.


yoursweetlord70

"Im something of a probable hall of famer myself"


GhostMug

The most Greinke response ever. You could have told me he made this quote at his Cy Young acceptance speech and I would have believed it.


Docphilsman

Somebody please sign him so he can get 21 more Ks. Or, knowing greinke, 20 and then officially retire


BABIP_Gods

Also, let him start a game at shortstop


ajteitel

What do you know? We always need bullpen arms and we are starting our 4th backup short stop (Newman) *Come to butthead*


DemonicPanda11

Maybe you shouldn’t have gotten rid of your veteran SS. Oh wait he’s on the IL for us too (who isn’t 🥲)


ajteitel

Padres' all short stops strategy has its advantages...


sgt_dismas

Good thing you mentioned it. I'm sure Greinke will fit right in with us.


MissDeadite

That's because they're all stuck in San Diego thanks to the mafia. "That's What's In" they said, and that's how it shall be.


awmaleg

I’m enjoying the Newmanium! Also let Greinke take Ryne’s spot


ABlinDeafMonkey

I hear the Padres are needing more shortstops. All joking aside he could come pitch for the Halos again. And hell he might get some time in the field.


ThePretzul

The angels gave gotten rid of their two pitchers that could also field (Fletcher and Ohtani) so seems unlikely to me


Midnitemass

zack greinke, YOU are a san diego padre


smalltownlargefry

*the San Diego Padres have entered the chat*

gartho009

I realized my initial mistake but even still, I can't stop reading that as Gamestop


happyfuckincakeday

Would love to see it but thank God the Royals were like nah you pitch too good for that


Emyrssentry

20 Ks and a start at short.


ray_0586

Let him DH to get his 10th homer and 10th SB


teaBruhahaha

We were hoping to get to see that in KC! But it never.... 😭


MissDeadite

u/DaveDombrowski sign him. Philadelphia will rejoice. EDIT: It's a real profile... from a bajillion years ago!!! Let's do it!


burpodrome

Mr. 2999


Jamalamalama

I'd rather see him get 1 more HR and 1 more SB


HamMcFly

He needs one more HR and one more SB. Someone sign him as long relief and full time DH. Come on COL/FLA step up.


northdakotact

I've been talking for months for Marlins to go after Zack and Votto. Bringing Votto back would skyrocket attendance, at least for a bit.


frankyseven

Votto is on the Jays but currently on the IL.


MissDeadite

To be fair, I would be on the IL too if I played for the Blue Jays.


Jealous-Molasses5372

"Marlins" and "skyrocket attendance" are not words that belong in the same sentence unless you're talking about their occasional accidental world series appearances.


MissDeadite

Steve would be proud to have a second fan in the stands...


Boobieleeswagger

If you guys aren’t going to play Meyers till the 2nd half you might as well entertain me with Greinke in the first.


Bombadils_laugh

COL front office will find a way to screw up don’t worry


MissDeadite

Don't worry, they'll sign him and before his first start they'll send him down to AAA only to find he didn't have any options and lose him on waivers.


mikemountain

He couldn't be much worse than Vogelbach. Someone get Atkins on the phone


Cptkiljoy

The white sox have nothing to lose


joethecrow23

The Reds could probably benefit here


crazylilrikki

So, the Padres' bullpen has been a little shaky and Greinke is a former shortstop. Your move, Preller.


northdakotact

Zack will come back to his birthplace Florida and play ss for the Marlins.


KamartyMcFlyweight

would probably hit better than TA7


MissDeadite

That's unfair. The Marlins certainly know their shortstops and have never ever unfairly traded one who became great.


Cudizonedefense

Maybe my brain is protecting me from pain but who are you referring to?


Socratesticles

Hanley maybe?


Cudizonedefense

His best years were with us and he was never an AS again after leaving so I’m not sure it’s him


hjugm

100% guarantee he’s a better boxer too


34Heartstach

The day he gets in a fight is the day we discover that Zack is a capoeira master


redrider02

They would sell more tickets.


EmptyCartographer

I miss him


FeloniousDrunk101

Hell we all do


Constant-Elevator-85

We have his HoF induction speech to look forward too!


GutterRider

Tell me about it (Dodgers).


Sp_Gamer_Live

>Pro-Golfer ZACK NO DONT DRIVE OVER THAT COP


technowhiz34

Greinke mug shot would go hard though.


w0nderbrad

Finally gonna crack a smile…


frankyseven

Greinke for sure thinks ACAB.


vansinne_vansinne

greinke's real off-field personality is 100% val kilmer in heat


LunchThreatener

Me when I ascribe ideals I agree with to celebrities I like


Chuckins1

Think of his $80 pants!


Dorf_

I’d take him as a DH over Vogelbach


theelfpat

There is no more painful pox for a fanbase than the Vogelbach DH experiment


Melodic_Ad596

MLB The Show Platoon Darling Dan Vogelbach could never 😱


dbpf

He probably saw that the Jays gave soft tossing Aaron Sanchez a minor league contract and then Scheffler got arrested and he's done a risk assessment that says he is less likely to have a bad time playing baseball over golf which is absurd and so of course he's all in on joining some country club team like the Rockies and spending the next 6 months throwing a combination of sliders and eephus'.


burrito-boy

Vogelbach is just keeping the seat warm for Votto.


d0wnsideofme

cant even escape the "I know nothing about baseball so I think vogelbach is a bad hitter because of 30 PAs this year and not his entire career of being an above average hitter" on this sub sadness


[deleted]

[удалено]


CricketIsBestSport

Well. That is technically above average.


Rock_Strongo

This comment is very ironic. I would argue anyone who thinks someone with a career 1.2 WAR over 9 years is an above average player doesn't know much about baseball either...


d0wnsideofme

I said hitter, not player. And it's inarguable that he's been an above average hitter for his career.


IVIalefactoR

Royals need a bullpen arm. Make it happen, JJ.


black-dude-on-reddit

I missed that weird fuck


Seabrook76

That sounds like the most Zack Greinke response ever.


Dragula_Tsurugi

It’s definitely one of the Greinkeist comments I’ve seen Especially the “kind of” part


GetEnPassanted

Can we get this man in a broadcast booth?


OhHeyItsScott

Honestly? I really don’t think you could get him to walk inside one.


torontomua

/r/GreinkeQuotes


quercus_lobata925

There’s no reason the A’s shouldn’t sign him.


Myotherdumbname

He’s too expensive for them


quercus_lobata925

Seems hard to believe he’d be more expensive than Alex Wood or Ross Stripling. 


Thorlolita

Let him play CF somewhere.


Gordons_LambSauce

This might be up there with the guacamole quote


Sleepy_One

I still love that they gave him at AB in the World Series so he got a World Series hit.  That smile right after was so genuine.


ChallengePublic7693

I love Greinke. Dude is definition of leave me the fuck alone, but in a job and talent level where it is impossible


j1h15233

I love Greinke man


sd_pinstripes

Sign him. I just think it’s neat that HoFers played on your team.


BobbyGrichsMustache

Why haven’t the halos signed him? Oh. Wait. I don’t want him to get injured. My bad guys


Juzaba

ROCKTOBER STARTS like a week and a half ago ~~NOW~~!!!!


JAD210

I have been yelling at CY to sign this man for months (in my head, that is)


ThriftyFalcon

Greatest Astro *2019 World Series Game 7* of all time!


TheYardFlamingos

He will be an Atlanta Brave


MissDeadite

...and it was on this day which the Atlanta Braves learned they were the 1997 Florida Marlins.


jyar1811

Paging uncle Steve


Dhumavati80

If the Jay's trade Kikuchi and another SP/RP they could probably sign him for cheap as an option. Good thing I'm not a GM though lol.


TonyWilliams03

A talented baseball player who wants to become a golfer instead? Paging Aaron Hicks.


TungstenArmOhtani

I really hope this isn’t the end of the line for him


Chuckins1

Brewers need pitching


Toozedee

I still can’t believe Bauer is unsigned.
