He had most major markets and all the NL West Teams on his no trade clause. He is an odd dude, he hates attention. You can come check out the /r/azdiamondbacks and Greinkism of the day posts.
Such gems as:
"I just wanted to make this clear: I can’t live without baseball…It’s to the point where it caused problems with my girlfriend because she knows baseball is more important than her. I say, ‘Hey, I’m sorry. I love the game that much. You’re not even close to being No. 1’ — that’s how much I love baseball. I couldn’t live without it."

and

"It was the worst thing that could have happened the whole entire year. There was all of the attention that came from it. But that’s not the No. 1 thing. The No. 1 thing is I probably had to sign 10,000 extra autographs because of that thing. Everyone has their Sports Illustrated cover that they want signed."- Zack on being on the cover of Sports Illustrated
