Again, per CBS Sports . com.
This is a big surprise; it was assumed for a long time the Dodgers and Giants were going to be the two main bidders. Greinke had a huge year last year (9.3 WARP, or Wins Above Replacement Player) and has had 21.1 WARP over the last four years overall. He is 32 years old, but he's been pretty solid (he's only had two seasons in the last eight where he made less than 30 starts, and both of those seasons were 28 apiece), and he doesn't seem prone to injury. He had some issues with social anxiety disorder in 2006, but that hasn't been a problem since then. Should be a good pickup for the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Greinke's career stats are here on Baseball Reference.
