Nolan Arenado wins baseball games, not popularity contests, and he’s very good at it

Stephanie Apstein spent a day in the life with Nolan Arenado and wrote a pleasantly revealing piece that really gives her readers a special opportunity to get to know the All-Star third baseman. As you learn in the article, Nolan is a man of few words and even fewer social interactions. He is one of the game’s very best players (ranking 5th in total bWAR since 2013 at the time of publication), but remains one of the most reserved. The last time he invested in a social media presence was when AOL Instant Messenger was still popular.
