Who do you guys think had/ has the greatest outfield arm? Roberto Clemente? Jesse Barfield? Vlad Guerrero?

Question

I think Roberto Clemente had the greatest arm ever and was the best right fieldler.

Answer 1

On a consistent basis, probably Rocky Colavito. As for someone who could unleash the most astonishing throw every once in a while, it was probably Downtown Ollie Brown.

Answer 2

It is almost certainly Clemente, especially when one factors in not only arm strength but also the accuracy of his throws. Today that title would actually probably go to Ichiro; Guerrero has lost a little zip in the past couple of seasons.
And how about a mention of Larry Walker, who threw runners out at first base several times on what should have been singles.

Answer 3

The great Roberto Clemente.

Answer 4

I have seen them all
Roberto Clement could throw a strike from the righ t field corner to home plate or third base. He was a small man as well.

Answer 5

I saw Barfield play in EX Stadium in Toronto in the 80's and let me tell you...he had a cannon of an arm. I saw him launch a ball to home plate without as much as a bounce and throw out a speedy Ricky Henderson tagging at third.

Answer 6

I went to a game and was right near where Barfield was in right field. He made the greatest throw I've ever seen!

Answer 7

Clemente hands down.

Answer 8

All these guys had great arms, but Dwight Evans had the best arm for a right fielder.

Answer 9

Bo Jackson, just ask Harold Reynolds, but from your list, Vlad!

Answer 10

dave winfield who was told to "hit the cut" when he was with the padres so, on a shallow ground ball, threw the ball and hit the second baseman in the backside
