    Yes, because a 35 year old sure-fire HOFer is known for self-sabotaging himself, right? You're either a dumbass or an ******* regarding your understanding of mental health. Which one is it??

    Greinke threw 108 pitches last night. 19 were curve balls. The two hits were on a curve and a cutter. Not sure which came first.

    Man, even, though he didn't get the no-no or even the CG, this will be one of the most memorable pitching performances of an Astro that I can remember seeing. It was brilliant watching him completely flummox a team with his full arsenal. And on top of that, he made excellent play after excellent play in the field to help his own cause. As has been pointed out multiple times in this thread, Zack Greinke IS baseball, and it's was a pleasure watching that last night.

    I mean, to be fair, he could be both.

    Greinke is the Mad Men and Radiohead of pitchers.

    Thanks, buddy. Love you too.

    Avoiding situations as self-sabotage is actually a very common response to anxiety. You're welcome.

    You're right, his decades long strange behavior is totally normal. Good call.

    I didn't say he was known for it, I quoted his comments said we don't know his potential for it. Substantial difference.

    I don't believe for one second he didn't want it.

    Did he not accept his CYA?

    NOPE !!!
