Zack Greinke nicely sums up the recent history of the Royals front office. Does he want out?
“It depends more on the team now,” Greinke said in an interview with the Kansas City Star. “We’ll see. This is at least the third full restart/rebuilding phase since I’ve been here. And, obviously, none of them have worked. This one hasn’t even really started yet.”
Read the whole thing to see that Zack has really thought about this, figuring out that the hitters coming through the system aren’t going to make an impact before his contract runs out after the 2012 season.
I read somewhere that Greinke has mental health problems.
Is this true? I’ve wondered why there is no talk of him going to one of the big city teams and that would explain it.
@Ed: Yes. He walked away from baseball a few years ago because of it. Through drugs and counseling he’s overcome that.
