DENVER – On Thursday, Nolan Arenado did it again, as he does almost every single day for the Colorado Rockies. Which makes this next part really hard.

Thursday’s Arenado play — a barehand rocket home to cut off a run — cracked his top 10 list. And because he’s a five-time Gold Glover, his top ten list is stacked.

Arenado is well on his way to Gold Glove number six and perhaps will repeat as MLB’s best fielder, earning the Platinum Glove. He’s already been named to the 2018 MLB All-Star Game and he’s made star-worthy plays on both sides of the diamond.

In fact, yesterday (Saturday) was his bobblehead day to celebrate his three-run walk-off homer against the Giants last season that competed a cycle.

Let’s look back and checkout the top ten defensive plays of the Sandblaster’s career.
