He has the weakest, weirdest looking arm I have ever seen on a third basemen. If you need proof check out tonight's highlights of the Braves v. Nats game. Stopped a hard ground ball and, I don't even know, threw it into the outfield. I have seen him play a few times, and didn't realize his arm was that bad until this spring when I saw him against the Mets. Just pointing this out really..

He actually has a pretty good arm. Tonight he just made a couple of plays where he kind of rushed his throws and threw wayyy off balance. But he's as good as anybody at 3rd, especially on the dribblers down the line.

I read in Sports Weekly he is suffering from the vagisitous syndrome.

That throw he made that went into rf was just an amazing stop, combined with a horrible off balance submarine type throw.....If he wouldn't have throw it submarine style, then the throw gets to where its going.

Its very hard to be accurate with those kinds of throws. Hopefully its not an injury thing. He's already had leg problems this year.
