He fucking sucks. He has a canon of an arm, and makes sports center when he miss plays the ball horribly and the runner tries to stretch a double into a triple. He has Cespedes tier fielding without the bat to make amends for that.

i wouldn't say cespedes is a "good" fielder, especially not in center field, but he's better than pweeg
>>74254538
This desu

Also Clayton Kershit in the playoffs

(this isn't backed up by statistics):
cespedes has a more accurate arm
but puig's I think is stronger
>>74254859
>cespy .981 fielding
>puig .983 fielding
Like I said, similar fielding, but Cespedes is a top 10 bat in the league. And puig cannot make up for his shit fielding.

this is such a fucking meme
if blacks were really that good at baseball they wouldn't be going extinct in the majors

Back then athleticism counted for a lot more in baseball.
Hell, Babe Ruth was like 1/60th black and became the near-unanimous GOAT by shitting on whitey

Also what black kid grows up wanting to play baseball? They want to emulate the Sportscenter highlights, not play a slow, boring game that old men like to watch. And they only need a court and a ball to do it, rather than two 9v9 teams, a field, and a shitload of equipment.
It's not that they can't play, it's just that they don't want to, or don't grow up doing it.

Puig still had a fucking cannon and was an elite defender.
Josh reddick sucked ass and dindu roberts put him in the lineup every fucking day while puig was in OKC
