Greinke: I’ve had enough of FIP!
We lost him!
The pitcher has also changed his mind a bit about pitching to FIP these days. Back when he thought about the stat more often, he noticed something: "I kept having good FIP and xFIP but my actual ERA was higher than those numbers."
The three-year stretch between 2010 and 2012 is the only stretch of his career where that was true. Sometime in August of 2012, Greinke had enough: "I'm done trying to pitch to that stuff, I'm just going to try and get outs."
He also said that having both a cutter and a slider messed him up because they blend too much.
Pretty interesting interview overall.
