You value offense from you projected shortstops or second baseman to be roughly equal. It's not a corner infield, nor an outfield position. Because of that, the differentiating factor between second and short is arm strength, since they both need equal lateral quickness and speed, as well as glovework.

Dude...
What are you talking about? I know the best athletes play short...the best athletes are the ones that become pros...****ing Jason Giambi was probably an amazing fielder back in grammar school.
I'm saying, almost every MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL 2nd baseman has a good, strong throwing arm.
That's my only argument. You've yet to successfully rebut it, I gave you a list of 2nd baseman, and you can't name one with a weak arm. You don't know shit.
You didn't even know Soriano had a good arm in the OF...
You are again, like usual, a pseudo intellect. I'd expect nothing less.
