I can throw from center to home plate. I'm more of a hit swinger not Homerun swinger and I can throw 70ish on a good day
Throwing and sliding are not athleticism. Running is, but you hardly ever have to. Outfielders are an exception lol
Running... You have to run around the bases and run to where the ball is going. Out fielders run to get the ball. It's not gonna come to you every time unless you are lucky
But most people aren't outfielders. Even if you are an outfielder it requires no stamina, just short bursts of energy or sprints.
I'm not "eating my words". Baseball in my mind isn't a sport and if you don't agree, fine. I'm not trying to force everybody to think like me.
