Hunter Greene, Reds take on Zack Greinke, Royals under the lights
Hunter Greene has a one-of-a-kind heater that makes you dream about his chances of one day winning a Cy Young Award. Zack Greinke, meanwhile, averaged 9 full mph fewer on his heater during the 2022 season than Greene, the league-leader in heater velocity (min. 80 IP).
It’s Greinke who owns a CYA in his trophy case, however. Pitching comes down to a whole lot more than just chuckin’ it hard, something that we all hope Greene has begun to develop the way he did down the stretch last season.
