    MEDIA CLIPS – July 20, 2017 Arenado thrives with unconventional technique Uncommon footwork paying off at plate for Rox slugger By Joe Trezza / MLB.com | 10:00 AM ET NEW YORK -- Give it a few years, some in the Rockies' organization believe, and the Major Leagues could be a league littered with players like Nolan Arenado. Not in terms of production -- not everyone woke up Thursday fresh off a three- homer game and eyeing a third straight RBI title -- but in hitting approach and style. Baseball is a copycat game. Do something at the plate a little differently and very well, and soon someone is bound to mirror it. Baseball people don't think it a coincidence Giants prospect Christian Arroyo resembles Buster Posey in stance and swing, or how Jose Bautista's leg kick led to Josh Donaldson's and Justin Turner's, and on and on. The next trend may come from a mechanical tweak in Arenado's load some are calling the driving force behind not just the third baseman's homers, but also his future standing as a pioneer. "It's now three straight years, and he comes in at the break and he's leading baseball in RBI," Rockies broadcaster and former outfielder Ryan Spilborghs said. "You start paying attention to him. Mechanically, what does he do?" It's what Arenado does with his back (right) foot, specifically, during his swing that is turning heads. Slow down the video of his three-homer game Wednesday. Before each one, Arenado actually lifts his back foot off the ground prior to stepping with the front foot, a momentum-creating motion that essentially gives him a running start into the pitch.

  • CLIPS Friday, April 01, 2011
    FLORIDA MARLINS, LP CLIPS Friday, April 01, 2011 Fresh Opening Day faces for Mets, Marlins Alden Gonzalez / MLB.com MIAMI -- This is when we'll finally begin to see how much change has really paid off. After several years of playoff absences, the respective front offices of the Mets and Marlins felt a switch at manager was necessary last year. Terry Collins of the Mets and Edwin Rodriguez of the Marlins will begin their respective quests to transform a culture and build success when they face each another on Friday, when Sun Life Stadium hosts its final Opening Day at 7:10 p.m. ET. The matchup between the two National League East rivals will feature the Mets' Mike Pelfrey and the Marlins' Josh Johnson, and it will signal the start of the final season before Florida moves into its highly anticipated retractable-roof stadium in 2012. For Rodriguez, who took the job when Fredi Gonzalez -- now with the Braves -- was dismissed on June 23, this will be his first Opening Day as a big league manager. For Collins, who last managed the Angels in 1999, it's his first in a long time. "This is the ultimate position to be in," Collins said, "and it's great to be back." The Mets -- apparently fed up with missing out on the playoffs for four straight years -- opted to start fresh this offseason, replacing general manager Omar Minaya with Sandy Alderson and Jerry Manuel with Collins. Then, toward the end of Spring Training, they cut ties with mercurial pitcher Oliver Perez and second baseman Luis Castillo -- two players symbolic of the Mets' recent underachievement.
