Grienke was apparently trying to guard Montero, who was posting him up. Needless to say, he couldn't handle him.

It is stupid to potentially cost your team a playoff berth by engaging in risky recreational physical activities.

Quick, trade Prince!
Could be worse, could need surgery.

Pickup basketball games are pretty common in the pre season.
You want your athletes to be active.

I see your point and you can potentially get injured doing everyday activities, but I'd rather my pitchers exclusively utilize the workout programs developed by the team trainers.

Why is it stupid? He hurt himself 2 weeks ago. Didn't say anything. Worked through 2 starts (not good ones) and now has himself shelved for 4-6 weeks. He even made a comment earlier about the importance of everyone staying healthy.
Why play a basketball game with such intensity as to break your ribs? He should be thinking about the first series against the Reds, who I believe are our biggest competition for the Central.
I'm all for staying active - and there are plenty of ways to do it without breaking any bones.
Hell, Greinke himself said it was stupid. http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/117613253.html
As far as I know, there really isn't a 5th starter option. Certainly not any that wouldn't make me cringe.

Could be worse, at least he wasn't being beaten by the cops after resisting arrest or in a bar fight. It was dumb, yes. Could be a much worse situation. I'm a glass half full kinda guy.

Didn't know it was two weeks ago and he continued to pitch...
I don't think it's stupid that he played though.

I know it sounds stupid but I am not that worried at the moment. I am glad as a Brewers fan to have Greinke on our squad. I just hope he doesnt flop like Suppan.
