New Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Zack Greinke is one of the best pitchers in Major League Baseball.

He's also one of the best random quote machines in professional sports.

During Friday's introductory press conference in Phoenix, Greinke was asked (by yours truly) what he likes most about the Valley.

Along with enjoying the weather during spring training, Greinke said the Arizona sunsets are "fantastic."

He's not wrong -- but the best part of Greinke's comment is it inspired MLB.com to produce a series of motivational posters featuring a series of off-the-wall Greinke quotes set to backdrops of various Valley sunsets.

Among Greinke's top hits:

"Every hitter is human... except Albert Pujols."

"You're not allowed to write about me unless you've seen 'The Shawshank Redemption.'"

"I'd say the average person wouldn't eat a Chipotle burrito and still do his running full speed like me. That's why they call me special."

Buckle up, D-backs fans. Next season is going to be fun.
