didnt he lead the league in outfield assists last year? thats probably more because teams challenged him. He did, however, come up as a SS through the Yankees system and always had an above average SS arm IIRC.
thattaboy rammy.
I don't know about led, but he had 22, so right up there. Neither one of those throws tonight was anything special though. I think you're right that it's because teams challenged him thinking he was just an infielder. His arm is obviously better than that.
