Can an infield arm rating be impossibly bad?

I've got a 2B with ratings of +90 in Infield Range, Infield Errors and Turn Double Play but he has an Infield Arm of 10 (out of 100).

Can this player overcome this Knoblauchian arm to be valuable defensively or should I give up on him?

I would play him until he proves he can't. I think he'll be OK.

If he's a 2B? Yes.

Most created players that are slotted at 2B have a 3/10 or less arm and are okay.

I'd put him at 3B and imagine him bowling the ball to first.
