I have a CF on my team with 99 range 83 glove but only a 51 for an arm, is he going to be okay in CF or should I move him to another position?

That's Pete Grey, MLB player.

Just a guess, but I think Pete most likely threw with his arm.

no I did not, read the book I'd rather be a Yankee, its quotes and interviews from past players along with a narrated history of each season, anyone who played wit joe d says in it he couldn't throw after he came back from the war, he was all reputation by then,

Only other 1 armed guy I can think of was Jim Abbott. And he was pretty good. Any others?

I've had a great range/glove guy with an arm that triggers the FI's email to move positions win a gold glove for me in CF. The + plays and such will more than outweigh the odd sac fly.

Hugh Ignatius (One-Arm) Daily pitched from 1882-87, winning 73 games despite not debuting until age 34. He was a right-hander.

Pete Grey says pitching with one arm is easy. Real one-armed men play the field.

Technically, both of them had a right arm. It was just really really short.
