Zack Greinke, RHP: I had Greinke one spot ahead of Price in my main rankings, but I won't argue with anyone who says the two should be flipped; both are bona fide aces, both are immediate difference-makers for 2016, both have strong health histories and reasonable arguments that they'll maintain their levels of output for several years to come. I gave a slight nod to Greinke, even though he's two years older than Price, because his style of pitching depends so little on velocity and so much on changing speeds and locations, a pitching approach that should survive even as his velocity faces its inevitable age-related decline.
David Price, LHP: If you prefer power in your starting pitchers, you should favor Price over Greinke.
