2. Adam Jones
ARM: Jones led all of baseball last season with 9.5 runs saved above the average. Over the past few years the young guns like Leonys Martin, Jason Heyward, and Kevin Kiermaier, have all been steadily climbing the ranks of ARM value, but none have been able to do what Adam Jones has done.
Consistency: Aside from the high ARM score in 2015, Jones has been a model of consistency with the cannon he possesses. Since 2013 only Leonys Martin has a higher ARM value than Jones. Going back to 2011, only one player tops Jones in this category. He’s been saving runs because of his arm since some of these guys on this slideshow were in diapers. Consistency is why Jones is near the top of the list.
Eye Test: Jones receives an exemption on the eye test. No one in the MLB makes a throw from the warning track look as easy, and effortless as Adam Jones does. Jones always has a shot to throw a runner out from any area on the food, and boy is it fun to watch.
