And again, I think Coors hitters are unfairly calculated by getting penalized for playing in Coors in park adjustments but then do not get a commensurate 'bump' for the fact that playing in Coors also damages their road numbers.
If you'd take any 3b in baseball over Nolan Arenado, I think you're nuts. The guy impacts games in ways very few guys can. That said, I'll concede that Rendon's having an exceptional season. I still wouldn't take him over Arenado.

It's hard for me to march your enthusiasm for him at least offensively. His away #s, adj for 600 AB season:
.266 76r 37 2b 26 HR 82 RBI 41/106 K/BB 781 OPS 106 wRC+
I'll take your word he's a defensive guru since I never see him play, but his bat is so inflated by Coors it's laughable. All of them are. Why do we keep buy No into the sham?
