Arizona Diamondbacks: Velocity not an issue with Zack Greinke

Right-hander Zack Greinke of the Arizona Diamondbacks cannot be confused with Alfred E. Neuman and his famous line, “what, me worry?”

That’s a reference to the debate surrounding lack of velocity on Greinke’s fastball, and Greinke has no worries. Some contend he may have lost a few miles per hour and thus making Greinke slightly more vulnerable to hitters. With two starts remaining here in spring training, there is no concern and little worry from both Greinke and decision makers.

In one of his last spins around the baseball diamond in preparation for the season ahead, Greinke turned back Team Netherlands on Saturday with comfort and ease.
