Zack Greinke's spirit animal is Zack Greinke.

I can’t wait for him to go to the HOF and give his emotional speech: “Thank you”.

no athlete more embodies the term “unapologetically himself” like greinke does. one of my favorite athletes ever

"March to the tune of his own drummers" bro you never fail to butcher an idiom and I am here for it

His 2015 season was truly incredible. I remember being 14 years old when Greink made his debut for KC. Now I’m 34 and the dude is still in the bigs. Lol

Zack Greinke is an actual hero of mine. Not because of what he did on the mound but because he was able to go get on that mound.

I love how Grenkie legit was going to quit baseball to be a garbage man. Just wait give it a few years and I bet grenkie is doing normal people stuff

As a Royals fan, this man is and will forever be my favorite pitcher ever. Never afraid to be himself, on and off the field.

As someone on the autism spectrum, I definitely get the feeling Greinke is as well. I'm guilty of a lot of the seemingly off-putting behavior as well, but it can just boil down to stress and fear of human interaction, or performing well in front of a crowd, etc.. that can lead to social anxiety and self doubt. Every time I hear Greinke speak, I'm further convinced he has ASD.

My friend was at a D'Backs game and this dad got his attention and asked him to sign a ball for his daughter's b-day. He responded by shaking his head and returning to his conversation. 😂

I watched Zack throw 20 strikeouts for the Royals against the Indians in 2009, dude is definitely one of the most talented pitchers of all time and definitely a Hall of Famer. His mind for the game is also unlike any other player I've seen, in a way he's kind of like the Bill Belicheck(sp.) of baseball. And as someone who's biggest enemy is myself the majority of the time due to the myriad of mental health issues I deal with, being able to see Zack still put in work after almost 20 years while dealing with similar issues, makes him one of my biggest heroes in all of sports. Thanks for just being you, Zack! Go, Royals! 💙

From all reports, particularly when he’s meeting young fans, he’s an incredibly lovely guy too.

Always been a fan of Zack, he reminds me of pro chess players, where's he an absolute genius with some serious talent, but he doesn't "play" he "preforms". His flip outs and weird habits line up with some of the greatest chess grandmasters in history.

8:24 That is the most savage story I have heard of Greinke. A pitcher telling you to just hit home runs like him. LMAO.

dude...so close to 3,000. I think he, like Waino just spent 1 too many season in the game yet while I love and respect Adam Zack is a HOF level player.

It’s honestly inspiring as someone with Generalized Anxiety Disorder to see someone with Social Anxiety Disorder be in such a pressure filled position and be so successful at it

Definitely has a touch of the Tism Him and Trevor Bauer too

Zack: Do more of that Alex Gordon: 🧍‍♂️ Self-reflection isn’t easy, but it allows you to think critically and boost self-awareness. Greinke the GOAT!

I remember 2005 being at a Royals game. The BIG SCREEN showed him saying this guys gonna be future of pitching. I remeber thinking let's see what bro will become. Here I am 2024 watching videos about him

always been a fan of him, thanks for the video!

Being from a software engineering i know alot of people like this. One of my friends had a very primising offer to an international research station only to deny it and go fry chicken because that was his true dream .

I'm so glad he's been, and currently is, a Royal. I think the Alex Gordon story is my favorite one. There's still time to help other teammates out of their future slumps. It will work. How could it not?

_The Dollop_ podcast has a hilarious episode about Rube Waddell. Absolutely worth a listen. It's hysterical

I enjoyed watching him when he played for Houston. I even saw him live in Oakland, and he got the W.

I remember his response shortly after Mac said that to him. I was right there! Shortly after the door to Buddy's office was closed. Allard, Zack and Buddy in that room.

Ok, truly he absolutly has to become a hitting coach.

He was pitching in detroit his 2nd to last start and I just had to be there to see him play in person. Plus I wanted to see one last rematch of miggy vs greinke and it was awesome! Got a couple cool videos on my phone too!

Did Clemens dirty with that pic😂

I love these videos man I know baseball but not enough and these videos are always interesting good for when I’m cooking

I was at Zack's high school graduation. He went to high with my sister in law.

Brilliant, I need to start calling on the first base ump for my check swings too.

Haha. Greinke with the Dodgers at a players meeting when they ask if anyone has anything to say,”It has come to my attention that some of you don’t wash you’re hands after using the bathroom. That’s gross.” Team, “Anything else?” …..Greinke”No.”

Raise your hand if you think MTC is the goat

He is one of my fav pitchers.

i remember there was one game with Houston where he is pitching and then he talks to the catcher with the other teams batter in the batters box (i also think this was 2020 as well) and he just says all the pitches he was going to use and what signs that would be for fun.

probably one of my favorite players

I’m a beard guy so def don’t need a razor but clicked ur link & browsed the site for a bit hope that helps ur metrics w the sponsor love what u do bro

Reporter: how you feel about your performance today? Greinki: “good it was lot people there” 😂

I wish we could see what his career woulda been like as a shortstop too.

He is great

The Dodgers flew to Australia in 2014 to open the season against the Arizona Diamondbacks...IMO....I believe Zach complained of back problems to before the trip...Being quite familiar with anxiety disorder with one of my daughters...The thought of flying over the ocean may have terrified him.

Another one who was ahead of his time. If he was rising up right now, they'd definitely groom him to be a 2 way player like Ohtani.

Honorable mention of when he went and sat in the bleachers by himself during the Covid season with the Astros lol

Excellent video!

I love Greinke and it hurts that we couldn’t win him a ring in 2019.

8:07 You didn't explicitly say it was, but that wasn't Greinke's first at-bat. First game hitting, but 2nd AB

Zack Grienkes spirit animal is Zack Grienke in the house!!!!!!!!!!!!!

8:00 The hardest thing to do in sports is play scratch, tournament golf. My stepdad played soccer, football, baseball, basketball and golf. Almost 60 years old and can score in the paint but he still cusses golf because it can’t be mastered 😂

Be a shame if he retires coming off this season with a record of 2-15...a true American original

Excellent vid.

Likely his social anxiety issues that made him react that way to being called up to the mlb. He's such a great example of what people can accomplish even on a huge public stage with those hardships

Ima miss Zack when he’s gone, childhood hero of mine

That Grienke curve/ephis broke mvp baseball on the ps2

I love your videos man, always informative and very well edited! the only piece of feedback I have is that your delivery is a bit repetitive, I think people refer to it as the "RU-vidr accent".

Thats a nice-looking shaving razor

My favorite player of all time. He should have won the cy young in 2015. Jake only won because he had more wins. I'm probably wrong but I think that and SO were the only stats Jake had more of than Greinke.

Greinke is the real life equivalent of an anime protagonist who is oblivious to the world but possesses unnatural powers.

There's a movie, if I'm being honest it's not too great, called "A Mile in His Shoes." I personally liked the movie but the more I watched it the more I thought of Zach Grienke. And, if you've watched it or choose to watch it now, I mean that in the best way possible. Baseball needs more Grienkes.

Thanks

This man deserves his flowers

That was quite possibly the most normal fact about spaceman you coulda said lol

Would have loved to see him play two ways

Can’t believe he roasted chipotle publicly for raising the price of guac 30 cents 😂😂😂

Zack is the best

His Ks are now really close to 3,000

Its kinda nice that Zachs last game was 5 shutout against the Yankees.

Zach's the kinda guy to miss his wedding and go fishing instead

Day 1 of asking for Barry bonds

1 of 5 pitchers to K over 1000 different batters? Sounds like a hall of famer to me

Don’t forget about his 13 games with the Angels

Im so bummed we weren’t able to get Zack that ring in 2019😭😭

Zach’s maybe the most autistic person ever and god do I love him

Zack isn't a 1-in a-million. He's definitely a One-of a-Kind.

Angels too

One of the most odd combinations of talented, humble, and…ODD!

my cousin is a Zack, these guys r just crazy and wild af 😂

Zack greinke looks like he would make a new pitch

nice vid

Good. 👍

He was great, he was weird, but I'm betting after a 1-15 season with a very high 5 plus ERA he'll probably retire. I guess that's why I used "was." He was really, really smart in a Rainman kind of way.

I was born the year the royals drafted him and he’s still in the blue 🥲

Zach is weirdly good

Every time I see this dude, I see the real life Slingblade.

Zack about to go buy a lawnmower and fulfill his dream of cutting grass! He'll absolutely love it!

I’ve always said I have Kershaw on my left and Greinke on my right shoulder. I often go Greinke when I look for advise. Not that he’s a Sith Lord he’s just more of a neutral do your own thing guy.

12:42 The Royals don't play in Kansas.

Steve Lyons. John Kruk.

Just wait until I make it to the league

I appreciate that most of the big baseball channels are still uploading as if the playoffs weren't happening, but I notice theres an extremely stark amount of modern content, I would love to have daily, or even weekly topical videos discussing the interesting things of the playoffs, without the classic espn style talking head.

ZG is KC.

Greinke has 2979 career strikeouts...

Bro I heard one of the teams Manny ramirez played for realized they had an extra million bucks on their books and when they looked into it apparently it was a check Manny got that he framed and put up on his wall instead of cashing. Lol idk if that's true but wouldn't surprise me if it happened

I don't think he's weird

Hes my counterproof to anyone who says baseballs got no personalities

Yes there will be another Zack Greinke. His name will be Grack Zeinke, he will be from Bizarro's home world.

Dodgers Zack was the best

Love to see Zack in blue 🧢

I identify with Zack Greinke more than any other player in MLB. I have autism.

Muhammad Ali - If I was a garbage man, id be the world's best garbage man! Zack Greinke - .... *medium distance lawnmower sounds*
