    Jeter winning a Gold Glove is ridiculous. He was much better on defense than he has been, but it's still bullcrap.

    Elvis Andrus should have won it. Yeah, he had 22 errors, but that's a small price to pay for 60 more putouts, 60 more assists, and 20 or so more double plays. Or at least give it to Erick Aybar if you want to split the difference on errors.

    Torii has been running on rep for a few years now. Not like that hasn't always been the case, though.

    Adam Jones is a stand out for me.
    Nice move.

    And it wasn't even close Hammer. Gold gloves have turned into awards based on rep and "are you an MVP candidate".

    Amazing what a GG first baseman can do for someone. People always underrate the importance of defense at first and this is living proof why it is important. It makes the entire infield better.

    Mauer's GG will look really nice next to his 09 Batting Title and 09 AL MVP awards.
