Is Greene the youngest pitcher in the Majors at 23?
Gone are the days of Bob Feller and David Clyde?

No, he is not. Nightengale is just another run in terrible beat writers.
Wish they gave him 1 more inning at 80 pitches.. but can't complain about that performance.

Roansy Contreras, Detmers and Green all are born within two months of each other with Green being only a month from being the youngest

Contreras is 93 days younger than Greene. He just pitched against the Reds, Bobby should have known that.
“The guys we've had for the most part have been serviceable at this level.”

I really hope this means that Hunter Greene was hanging out at Johnny Bench’s house watching film of Bob Gibson with Johnny telling him BRM stories.

I'd just settle for him watching Bob Gibson films.
I like how Bench is still passionate about the Reds. He had another tweet later on complaining about that game ending play where Senzel hit the runner going home. I'm glad he cares.

We know that Johnny Bench will never catch one of Hunter Greene’s pitches bare handed.

Not on purpose at any rate.

Hunter Greene on his changeup and his fastball
continue reading here:When Hunter Greene was out for a month, recovering from a right shoulder strain, he focused on some of his weaknesses.
He said his top goal was finding ways to “upgrade myself” and “add to my toolbox.”
He's had many conversations with pitching coach Derek Johnson about increasing his changeup usage.
"I’ve been working on that pitch," Greene said. "That is going to be a great weapon for the rest of this year and the future.
Look at Greene’s first-inning at-bat against Rowdy Tellez as an example. After falling into a 2-0 count, Greene pumped a 99-mph fastball past Tellez. He followed with a changeup for a called strike, an elevated 100-mph fastball that was fouled and a changeup that froze Tellez for a called third strike. It was Greene’s first strikeout of the season with his changeup, according to Statcast.

Real encouraging for his future.
I wonder would some time with Soto help him with the change up

If Hunter Greene can get a major league average change-up, he'll be the Ace we hoped for. Happy to read this.
