Zack Greinke's wife Emily reveals 'mommy's new medicine' to combat the winter chill

As the winter season sweeps in, even the families of MLB stars like Zack Greinke aren’t immune to its chilly grip and the inevitable colds it brings. The former Kansas City Royals starting pitcher is married to Emily, and the couple shares three sons: Jordy, Griffin and Bode.

The six-time All-Star and two-time ERA champion hasn't pitched in the majors since 2023, when he last played for the Royals. Since then, the 41-year-old Orlando native hasn't been able to land a contract in free agency.

On Sunday, Emily gave her followers a candid glimpse into her family's life through her Instagram stories. In the first story, Emily shared her witty take on “mommy's medicine,” showcasing a bottle of Châteauneuf-du-Pape Omnia 2015 with a caption reading:

"Mommy's medicine when everyone has been sick," highlighting that a sip of wine in freezing temperature will serve as medicine.

In the next story, Emily shifted the spotlight to her little one, who was seen snuggled under a navy blanket on a comfy couch.

"So does this sick, sweet babe. The amount of chef shows he has watched is insane. I bet he has learned so many new tricks to try," Emily wrote.

"So happy to be back with my sweet friends, so proud to take the field with them again and so honored to be a part of such an elite group. There is a reason they are the best of the best and @dcc_judy and @kellifinglass are the main reason for that.
