Not exactly what you’d call a surprise, but Torey Lovullo named Zack Greinke officially as the Arizona Diamondbacks’ Opening Day starter before this afternoon’s game against the Chicago White Sox at Camelback Ranch. He’ll start at Chase Field on April 2, when we face the San Francisco Giants, and (fingers crossed) will become the fourth pitcher with multiple Opening Day starts for Arizona. The other three are Randy Johnson (6 times), Brandon Webb (4) and Ian Kennedy (3). Let’s just hope this year goes better than 2016, when Zack lasted only four innings against the Rockies, giving up nine hits and seven earned runs in his first outing as a Diamondback.
