Expert Note
View More NotesGreinke has posted superbly similar ERAs (3.20, 3.21) and WHIP (1.07, 1.08) in the last two years, but the heavily used 35-year-old comes with some warning signs. His average fastball velocity slipped to 89.6 mph, leading to a .361 wOBA against the pitch. He also benefited from his lowest BABIP (.272) and highest strand rate (80.2) since 2015's 1.66 ERA. A cerebral pitcher with elite control, Greinke should avoid bottoming out entirely. Yet the risk is there. He's someone to draft as a steady SP2 rather than a staff anchor.

View More NewsZack Greinke will report to D'Backs camp late
Zack Greinke has requested to report to Spring Training a couple days late, which manager Torey Lovullo granted.
Fantasy Impact
Lovullo made sure people knew Greinke is not injured. He even threw a 40-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday. Lovullo also said Greinke was very proactive in reaching out to him about this. It doesn't sound like this is anything to worry about.
