I saw this topic on a cubs message board, so i decided to start it here.

 

Nominations: Castillo, Loduca, Gonzalez and Lowell.

 

Who Should Win: Lo Duca and Gonzalez.

 

 

Lo Duca has thrown out 10 of 14 base runners while in florida, thats a .417% he only has 2 passed balls in FLA, 7 in LA. and an overall .995 % in overall fielding.

 

And Gonzo, while his fielding percentage doesn't show it, he's definetly saved a few XBT or overall runs with his sickening D.

Gonzo should hopefully earn his first

 

 

an outside chance is Castillo

 

 

thats all folks

 

 

LoDuca is a no-no ... hes got matheny in front of him

 

and Rolen has been short of perfect this year ... actually they should engrave the next 10 gold gloves w/ his name on it already

Alex. that's all.

Alex, but there are a lot of GG worthy SS's in the NL.

It would be unfair not to give it to Alex, IMO.

Gonzalez.

I think Cesar Izturis has the inside track at the NL SS Gold Glove, Gonzalez is very impressive.

A Gonz and possibly Luis Castillo. Other than that, no one.

some one go and compare metheny to lo duca. Please. I'd like someone to look up stats before talking.

Matheny:

.267 CS% 3.85 CERA 1E 2PB

 

Lo Duca:

.313 CS% 3.82 CERA 4E 9PB

 

Lo Duca could win it.

 

Something to look at though, Matheny has only 55 SB attempts against him while Lo Duca has 99 in only 10 more games. Much like Pudge, Matheny's reuptation behind the plate preceeds him ... no one is really testing him anymore.

there, i told ya'll bitches. Heres something for ya:

 

"Make sure your brain is loaded before you go shooting off your mouth"

 

 

yeah, its a sign in my kitechen...

Matheny is the better catcher, Lo Duca has the lower CERA which is really a function of the pitchers you have throwing to you ... and Lo Duca has caught two of the best staffs in baseball this year.

I'll take LoDuca over Matheny anyday, and so would anyone else in the NL.

Not defensively

Alex. that's all.

my sentiments exactly :thumbup

Im surprised no one has mentioned renteria at SS. Remeber that for some reason offense is a factor in gold gloves even though it shouldnt be. I dont think loduca will get it b/c he was traded and the cardinals have achieved godly status. I think renteria, matheney, and rolen will all win gold gloves in those positions. And as far as the cards go so will edmonds

I could easily see Alex not winning it, but I hope he does

Sea bass deserves it

Damn, if Alex doesn't get it this year then he never will! That boy DESERVES it!

in the words of josh beckett "if alex doesnt win the gold glove this year, i dont know who the hell does"

Castillo leads the NL in ZR and is in third in FP, considering he's the defending champ I say he has a very good chance to repeat.

 

 

I don't think Gonzo has much of chance, he's not a big name. Izturis and Everett are having as good if not better seasons defensively.

Its a toss up between Alex and Khalil

 

Rolen is god and Matheny will win it over Lo Duca

Everett has been hurt for sometime now so I would count him out....

 

I think its between Renteria, Greene, Bass, and Izturis.... maybe Jack Wilson too

Greene has too many errors. But because of his aggressiveness. That can probaly be a factor if he doesn't win it. So I would probaly count him out.

Gonzo!!! He can make almost any play. If he cant, no one can. From game to game, he always impresses me with his confidence. He tries to make any play, and most of the time he gets it. Sometimes he hardly even touches the ball b4 he throws it to get an out. go Gonzo!
