Greenberg would go on to play in the minors until 2011. He signed a one-day contract with the Miami Marlin in their October 2, 2012, home game against the New York Mets. The contract was worth $2,623 and was donated to an organization that researches brain trauma in athletes.

That same year, Greenberg founded Lurong Living, a lifestyle brand committed to changing lives through education and high-quality nutritional products.

Greenberg played for the Israeli national baseball team during the 2013 World Baseball Classic qualifier. He retired from baseball the following year, and was inducted into the National Jewish Sports Hall of Fame.
