His reaction to Smoltz’s non answer re: whether he’s ever dreamed of pitching in a Game 7 was ornery. Basically repeated Smoltz’s response ‘I dunno......probably’ with a tinge of sarcasm.
I think that's their idea of clever repartee.

Yea the nats are gonna have to win in spite of max instead of bc of him. That is too bad considering how important he has been for this franchise the last few years. Don’t really trust Sanchez to give us a ton of scoreless innings. They need to make grienke work more asap

Absolutely no one said it was a PED. I only wondered if what he was on was public knowledge, and apparently it is. Zoloft can have nasty side effects for some people.
Yes it can, as can many other meds. Unless Greinke is talking about it, not sure why we need to discuss or have access to that info. Mental health is difficult to discuss as is, I am glad Greinke is seeking treatment if reports are true. Cannot imagine the difficulty seeking treatment when playing in a macho / tough sport.

Greinke has been very open about his mental health struggles and the treatment that he receives. It’s one of the reasons I root for him out there.

He also takes a lot of crap for it, which is gross.

I sent ITP a PM. Never meant as an attack all ( I realize it was a curt response). I hadn't heard Greinke speak of it recently (I remember early this decade) and I am glad he is advocating Mental health awareness. IT is hugely important.

Agree it is disgusting people would attack for his MH concerns. The discussion of these issues needs to change dramatically, especially as they become more prevalent in the modern world.

No more digression, back to watching Greinke in awe of his performance this game
