BJ Upton went 2-for-4 with a home run, stolen base and two runs
BJ Upton went 2-for-4 with a home run, stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Marlins.
Analysis: With Sunday's win, Greinke finally snapped a nearly two-month stretch in which he was unable to notch a win in consecutive starts since his early-season 6-0 run. Greinke suffered through a rough stretch in mid-June in which he got pounded to the tune of a 5.86 ERA, but the young righty has rebounded with a pair of strong outings. He'll look for win No. 11 on July 3 when he's next slated to hurl against the White Sox.
Greinke picks up tenth win
Zack Greinke notched win number ten on Sunday as the Royals downed the Pirates 3-2. Greinke went 6.1 innings and allowed two runs on seven hits while striking out three.
Our View: Greinke hasn't been quite as dominating lately as he was early in the season, but he has still been very good. He is 10-3 on the year, and he should continue to pile up the wins as the season goes on. With his prodcution slipping a bit, if you can trade him for a king's ransom it might be a good idea, but it should be an offer you can't refuse.
