Zack Greinke

For all the numbers, data, formulas and eyeball scouting, the decision-makers in Major League Baseball are still human—sometimes.

They are prone to non-analytical judgments. They have feelings. They watch the postseason like everyone else. They feel the ups and the downs, and they see and feel the emotion involved with it all.

On the heels of a career season that could land him the National League Cy Young Award, Los Angeles Dodgers ace Zack Greinke has a decision to make regarding free agency.

Incomparable. You've probably heard that word thrown around in connection with Zack Greinke and Clayton Kershaw, the dynamic duo that's poised to pitch the Los Angeles Dodgers into October.

Certainly, the likes of Greinke and Kershaw don't come around often, and even less frequently do such immense talents occupy the same rotation.

But there is a comparison for the Dodgers' two-headed mound monster, if an imperfect one.

Zack Greinke is in the midst of his best season, but the Los Angeles Dodgers star finds himself on the mend with an injured calf.

If Zack Greinke hasn't cleared space in his trophy case yet, he'd better get busy. Because, while the race for the National League Cy Young Award isn't over, the Los Angeles Dodgers' right-hander looks more like the prohibitive front-runner with each superlative start.

After his Colorado Rockies were swept last week at Citi Field, Nolan Arenado explained it away by raving about the New York Mets' pitching.

"The Mets have four No. 1's. We saw all four of them," Arenado said.

No one ever says that about the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Starting pitching and superstars from both sides will determine who earns home-field advantage in the World Series when the American League and National League clash Tuesday in the 2015 MLB All-Star Game. 

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Zack Greinke finished the first half of the season with a 1.39 ERA, the lowest mark for any pitcher with at least 15 starts since Bob Gibson (1.06), Luis

The 86th annual All-Star game will take place at 8 p.m. ET Tuesday at the Great American Ball Park in Cincinnati. The festivities, though, got started off with a few bangs on Monday night with baseball's Home Run Derby.  

Todd Frazier seemed all too comfortable in his home park as he did something he'd done 15 times before in 2015: hit a ball into the red-shirted screaming fans beyond the outfield wall.

If he's so inclined, Zack Greinke can end his six-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers after only three seasons at the end of 2015. He just better make sure he has a really good season first.

Seven starts in, it wouldn't be fair to call his 2015 season "really good." It's been more like "superb."
