What did Rock claim...what did I respond to...Matt Chapman has the strongest arm at 3b.

Scouty's correct

I was going purely off what I've seen from NADO in the past/memory (Winn I didn't have to look up to know he's got one of the top arms at SS) and didn't look it up.

After doing so it seems NADO has lost 4 MPH off his throw from 2020 when he ranked #2.

BUT combined NADO/Winn are very close to having the best combined arms from the left side.

Nope...San Fran then the Rox

DelaCriz has strongest arm at SS. Oneil Cruz in all of the league but he plays OF now

Just turned it on, I've seen Nado drop a throw from Scott, now a throw from Pogo, and they said he missed a ground ball double that went right through him all this f'n inning?!?!?!?

Lineup

1. Lars Nootbaar (L) ~ RF
2. Masyn Winn (R) ~ SS
3. Brendan Donovan (L) ~ 2B
4. Nolan Arenado (R) ~ 3B
5. Willson Contreras (R) ~ 1B
6. Ivan Herrera (R) ~ DH
7. Alec Burleson (L) ~ LF
8. Yohel Pozo (R) ~ C
9. Victor Scott II (L) ~ CF

LHP Matthew Liberatore (3-3, 3.11 ERA)

I hate it. If Walker never plays against righties, might as well trade him today. Same with Gorman.

Why not give NADO a game off and let Gorman play third while giving Contreras a rest and letting Walker get another start.

Might as well trade these guys if you're not going to play them. Or send them to Memphis.

How weird that JW has twice as many ABs vs righties, than lefties...dumb [shirt]

A lot more righties in this league....

Not good libby w/Witt up now

the 2nd to last pitch was a strike
of course Eddings called it a ball

Huge out by LIbby of Witt Jr. with runners on.

Let’s get the lead back bats!

Walker up there too w/the OF'ers!

I was surprised NADO lost 4 mph off his throws, must be from those injuries he's had off & on the past few years.


Donny w/the catch, get sby Witt again

end of four
1 6 0
1 6 0

That strike zone in the Garcia AB ....

Strike 4 called ball 3 ... bring on the robots

I did slow mo replay twice on the dropped throw from Scott. It was the classic 'took his eye off the ball just prior to the glove'
You can freeze frame to see the ball at the webbing with Nado's head starting to turn looking at the sliding runner. Gotta look the ball into the glove . Same things happen to NFL WR's when they drop them sometimes. Take a look to run before the ball all the way into your grasp.

That was excellent throw by Scott. He had the runner nailed if Nado catches it . No run scores of course.
