I'm reopening this review today... sorry for the abandonment Secret ^account 14:48, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the delay

Lead should be expanded further per WP:LEAD.
Doesn't he still owe the record for biggest contract signed by a right-handed pitcher. The few contracts that surpassed it (Lee, Kershaw) are all left-handers. Mention it if it's still the case instead of "at the time". If it was surpassed, mention which pitcher surpassed it.
Ancestery.com isn't a reliable source, replace it.
Citation 1 needs to be better organized with the other refs.
"...education for the Greinke kids." There is no other mention of siblings in the early life section, only one sibling in personal life. Better to remove it unless you want to expand on siblings.
"estimated that he hit close to .700 in the tournament to lead his team." - "lead of team" is repetitive here, mentioned twice already in the same sentence, reword or remove.
The third and fourth paragraphs of early life can be combined.

to be continued....

I think i've fixed all these issues.. waiting for your continuation. Spanneraol (talk) 21:45, 27 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If the review's not done in another couple days ping me. He keeps saying he's gonna do it and it's still barely progressing, so I'll just do it. Wizardman 19:42, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yea my time got diminished completely so Wizardman, can you continue doing it. I need to learn better time management skills. Secret ^account 20:34, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Would be great if one of you could finish this, or just send it back to the stack for someone else to pick up. Spanneraol (talk) 23:40, 22 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
