Want to know the strangest part about the Ryan Braun case? The best outcome for baseball might be if a three-member panel upheld Braun's positive drug test, forcing him to serve a 50-game suspension.

Key Stats: In 2009 Greinke established himself as an "ace", 16-8 record, 2.16 ERA, 242 K's and an AL Cy Young Award. He "fell apart" in 2010, losing record, ERA over 4.00, lower K rate, higher BB rate. It wasn't a pretty picture. The Brewers traded for him, and he found his old form again in Milwaukee.
