Trade Deadline: Several teams interested in Brewers P Zack Greinke 07.26.12 at 10:06 am ET

Zack Greinke

Brewers pitcher Zack Greinke may have just become the top available starter on the trading block, and several teams are apparently interested in the righty.

With Cole Hamels signing a six-year, $144 million extension with the Phillies, it seems as if Greinke is the most highly touted pitcher left on the market. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Tom Haudricourt reported Wednesday night that the Brewers were taking calls from teams interested in Greinke.

“It sounds like he’s as good as gone,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s source said. “There’s no reason for them to keep him now.”

Haudricourt believes the Rangers, Braves and Angels are the most seriously interested in Greinke and are making big pushes to get him. He also noted that the White Sox, Orioles, Dodgers, Nationals, Blue Jays and even the Red Sox could possibly go after the 28-year-old.

Greinke is 9-3 with a 3.44 ERA this season and allowed one run in seven innings in his last start on Tuesday vs the Phillies.

    Red Sox are better off holding onto their assets.  Greinke is good, but the asking price could be an overpayment.

    I think Greinke will be a Yankee by this time next year.

    My #2 behind Welker, without whom the Pats might not have scored.

    VInce may well be the team’s MVP for the season…not taking anything away from the season TOm Brady is putting together.
