Dwight Evans with the Red Sox. Early 80’s. Dude could throw you out at home from the warning track.

Vlad, ole baw warmed up with light Foul pole to foul pole long toss very casually when I saw him in spring training in 2003.

Dude had a fricking howitzer for an arm. He made the single best throw I've ever seen
Yeah, this is the first throw that I thought of. I'm not sure how that throw can be topped

Seen Vlad and Trout in person. Vlad has the bigger arm

I'm not old, but I've seen Vlad Guerrero in person. My easy vote goes to him.

So if you’re 60, it means at the oldest you were born in 1960. Clemente’s last year was 1972. So the oldest you would have been to see him play in person would be 12 years old. So you’re honestly saying 12 year old you could determine OF arm strength?
Okay

Vlad, Jeff Francoeur, or Ankiel

Ellis Valentine,Warren Cromartie, and Andre Dawson had f'in arms. And could all gun your arse out.
I played for Miami-Dade CC before transferring to LSU. Cromartie was an alum and worked out with us for 5-6 weeks before reporting to Spring Training. Ever once in a while Andre would come and shag flies with me during BP. Andre and Valentine had great arms but not Cro. There’s a reason he was moved to 1B early in his career.

Saw Delmon Young throw a fricking seed one time from the right field warning track in the minors

Roberto Clemente and Willie Mays. I saw them both play on numerous occasions in the Astrodome.

I get that you're fricking with Peej, but come on. The mind locks in and excels on certain stuff, at different points in your life.
16 yr old me was a connoisseur of hot women;
12 yr old me was a walking encyclopedia of sports info and analysis. That's the age where the brain is hungry, and sex hasn't overridden everything else yet.

Andruw Jones in his Braves prime. He is up there.

Bo Jackson (in person)

Not the best ever obviously but Andruw Jones had a cannon. Jeff Francouer also comes to mind as strong arms I've seen. You can tell I grew up going to braves games, huh.
