    So much for a clean inning. I was always afraid of Greinke's start. The Rays are the exact type of team that can keep taking pitches until they see something they want.

    Greinke is no Cole or Verlander...or Morton.

    So ya, please sign Cole. Grienkie can't hold the worst line up in the playoffs at bay.

    What's the point of a change up that goes 1 mph less than your fastball? Should have ditched it after the first screw up.

    same. i was just hopeful he would last a min 5 in a solid outing. he probably won't make it that far

    the offense has to put up runs in Grienke's outings for sure

    Rays are very excited not to be facing a flame thrower.

    Long rest isn't good for change-ups, sinkers, or knucklers.

    Greinke hadn't shown good playoff production either.

    Grienkie vs the Yanks is a scary ass proposition

    It sure would be nice if Springer could show up. He's sorely missed.
