No. He has a great arm. As savant or BT said, that doesn't make up for his other fielding problems, but if a guy has ONE outstanding defensive characteristic, it seems to make sense to put him in a position where he can make the most use of it.

I would agree with that if putting him in that position did not so terribly exploit all of his defensive deficiencies.
