Greinke on AJ Ellis: "He knows the other team as good as anyone I've ever played with, he's almost a pitching coach back there"
그는 내가 함께 플레이해본 선수중에 가장 다른팀을 잘알고 있는 선수이며, 그는 흡사 투수코치같다.

저번에 나온 이야기는 거의 농담이었음을 알수있는 대목.
GREINKE TO HIS CATCHER: YOU’RE GONE!
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Zack Greinke is famously blunt, but even catcher A.J. Elliswas taken aback by an exchange he had with the pitcher during a Sunday afternoon game in San Diego in late June.
The Dodgers were struggling at the time, so Ellis enlisted Greinke, a student of the game, to play GM. Neither was playing that day, so Ellis told Greinke during batting practice, “Let’s figure out how to make the team better.”
Greinke replied, “Let me think about it.” Then, while sitting on the bench during the game, he informed Ellis of his solution.
“The first thing I’m doing is trading you and signing Brian McCann,” Greinke said, referring to theAtlanta Braves’ catcher, who is a free agent at the end of the season.
Ellis, who is earning $2 million, said that Greinke also has told him that he is pricing himself out of the Dodgers’ plans, as if such a thing is even possible. When I asked Greinke about that, he denied the charge.
“He’s not pricing himself out,” said Greinke of his teammate, who has two years of arbitration remaining. “He’s not a home-run hitter. Home-run hitters are the ones who price themselves out.”
Ellis indeed has only 21 career homers in 912 at-bats, but he doesn’t take offense at Greinke’s candid assessments. Indeed, the debate over Ellis’ value has become a running gag between the two.
“He’s probably the most refreshing teammate I’ve ever had,” Ellis said. “I’m enjoying every second with him.”
엘리스 " 우리팀이 더 나아지려면 어떻게 해야할지 고민좀 해보자."
상남자 " 생각좀 해볼께."
게임내내 벤치에서 고민한 상남자의 결론은
"일단 맨 첨에 할일은 널 팔고 맥캔을 사오는거야..."
저번에 그랜키에게 팀의 문제점을 상의했을때 불의의 일격을 맞았던 엘리스 ㅜ ㅜ
PS: 그랜키는 농담도 무섭게 하는군요 ㅋㅋ
