He's under contract for the next four seasons at a below-market $59MM total. In 2013, his $22MM club option could be seen as a discount as well - remember when A.J. Burnett at $11MM a year was crazy? The A's...

Zack Greinke (12-10, 3.59) vs. Freddy Garcia (1-0, 0.00) Last place truly is on the line this evening, as the Detroit Tigers could move into the AL Central basement with the Kansas City Royals with a loss tonight.

Zack Greinke (3.67 ERA) takes on Forrest Lee (2.32 ERA) in a matchup of genius. These guys are like Niels Bohr and Erwin Schrodinger facing off at the Solvay Conference . Just a reminder, but if you are interested in talking Chiefs today, Arrowhead Pride has a game thread up.
