He's like Pedro in 2000.

How did Jackson look before the 6th? And also how does he only have 2 ER. I thought it would be 3 since it was his throwing error in the 6th.

Hernandez got on base due to the error and later scored.

After watching Greinke pitch today I would not be surprised in the least bit if he is the best pitcher in baseball for years to come. This guy has impeccable control.

I just got Mlb.tv from a friend and had the pleasure of watching Greinke pitch today.

This is no fluke.

He very well may finish with a low to sub 2 ERA. His control in unbelievable, his balls break in nasty ways, and he has a 96-98 mph fastball with plenty of movement to rely on. I just don't see how he can ever not win.

Yeah, none of that is new for me, I've seen many of his starts this year. He's obviously going to have to give up a HR at some point, but I see his ERA ending up in the low 2's.

I just don't see how he can ever not win.

The Royals offense.:-X

Best stat I've seen in awhile on Greinke. Last night they showed his BAA for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd time through the lineup this season. Without remembering or looking up the exact numbers it was something like .250 first time through the lineup, .220 the second, and .125 the third time through. Completely mind-boggling how many plus-plus pitches the guy has. 8-o
