Haven't heard anything about this guy yet this year, but he is off to perhaps the best start of any pitcher in the majors so far with a 3-0 record, a 0.00 ERA, and 26 Ks in 20 innings pitched. Who would have predicted this? It's still early, buy this kinda reminds me of Cliff Lee last year.

And I bring this up because it looks like Porcello is scheduled to pitch against him on Friday. Can't wait ;)

Well when Grienke came up I was expecting big things out of him. Hopefully he's finally starting to get into his groove.

The difference is that Greinke has dominant stuff, was a top prospect, and is young enough to really develop into a legit ace for the next few years (even after last season maybe weren't sold on Lee.) This means the investment potential on his cards is far greater.

If you haven't heard anything about him, that's your own fault. He's been mentioned quite a bit. He has a 34 consecutive scoreless innings streak going. Shutting out the Rangers in Texas should help get people's attention. He's a bona fide ace.

ESPN acknowledge his performance on TV this am. Many casual collectors/prospectors will be jumping on the band wagon soon.

Sorry for partying?

34 scoreless inning streak is really impressive. Hopefully that doesn't continue through Friday though :twisted:

Webb isn't healthy and you'd rather have him? Probably a good reason you aren't a GM.

Um, thanks for arguing for him. Um, if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. Either way it's a pretty crappy argument. He's not healthy. Um, when he is then um put him on the list. Um thanks.

Derails threads? Show me links. This had nothing to do with you but you still your nose into it. All I was doing was disagreeing with someone and then people that have nothing to do with any of it get involved. You have added to the derailment.
