November 5, 200322 yr I hate to say this, but if he gets a GG today his asking price would go up. . .Not good for us. Who other than pudge may get it?
November 5, 200322 yr Matheny. no errors all season/ didn't have a passed ball until june or july i think.
November 5, 200322 yr He did good defensively. He had a good Percentage, he might have a chance but Javy Lopez i think will get it.
November 5, 200322 yr No way Not an All-Star To many PBs Steal ratio was not good either Vote is taken before post season, so late offense won't help
November 5, 200322 yr If the award was based on the entire season,including post season,Pudge would win. This award is based alot on reputation. Alot of votes go to past winners because of there rep.Until Pudge had the great post season alot of people saw him as a aging catcher who has been hurt. What his stats or any other catcher stats are really does not matter. I mean Pudge won 10 straight years in Texas. You do not think people just voted for him on name alone.(not saying he did not deserve to win 10 straight) He may not win this. But next year when the Marlins get there WS rings that will be better anyway.
November 5, 200322 yr Author No way Not an All-Star To many PBs Steal ratio was not good either Vote is taken before post season, so late offense won't help Is calling the pitching game a consideration? I don't know, but I wouldn't rule him out yet.
November 5, 200322 yr Instead of creating another post I'll add who I think should win the GG for 1st base.. D LEE anyone?
November 5, 200322 yr Instead of creating another post I'll add who I think should win the GG for 1st base.. D LEE anyone? I think d lee will get it. His field pct was close to #1 in the NL, and if you account for his added range due to his height, he really is the best fielding 1B in the NL. A GG would be nice if we plan on trading him. But if we want to keep him... well, let's hope he gets the shaft then.
November 5, 200322 yr If pudge wins a gold glove then mlb is kissing pudge's azz cuz pudge does not deserve it,on the other hand i like matheny for the gg.

November 5, 200322 yr It's voted on by managers and coaches. I'm pretty sure players don't vote. I'm also pretty sure that each manager/coach simply votes for the best at each position in their league. They don't have to list a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd at each position. Because of that, you can end up with some really bizarre results for Gold Glove, like when Palmeiro won a couple of years ago. You can win a Gold Glove with 15% of the vote if the voting is split enough. Kinda like California elects governors.

Kinda like California elects governors. you are right. here are the official rules: The Gold Glove Award winners are selected the best at their respective positions by Major League coaches and managers prior to the conclusion of the regular season. Managers and coaches may not select players from their own club and only vote for players in their own league.
November 5, 200322 yr I think Matheny should get it, despite the fact that he's not as good as his stats say. I would say it's a 50/50 chance Pudge gets it over Matheny. 100% chance Lee gets it. 70/30 chance Luis gets it. 40/60 chance Gonzalez gets it. 50/50 chance Encarnacion gets it.
November 5, 200322 yr Matheny is not as good as Pudge, he is lucky that St. Louis pitchers are too wild or too on target for him to not get charged passed balls. Pudge blows him away with his defense and arm.
November 5, 200322 yr 100% chance Lee gets it. 70/30 chance Luis gets it. 40/60 chance Gonzalez gets it. 50/50 chance Encarnacion gets it. I disagree with that. I think Lee has a chance but it's still less than 50/50. I think Encarnacion has no chance. I'm not saying that's fair but considering that Andruw Jones and Jim Edmonds will get 2 of the 3 OF Gold Gloves, I think Encarnacion won't come close.

I'm not saying that's fair but considering that Andruw Jones and Jim Edmonds will get 2 of the 3 OF Gold Gloves, I think Encarnacion won't come close. Lee is a lock. A freakin' lock. And Edmunds won't be winning one this year. I gaurentee you this.

Pudge blows him away with his defense and arm. i disagree 100% Pudge isnt the defensive juggernaut he used to be and WC, Lee is a lock? the guy got no pub before the playoffs, he deserves it but it is NO LOCK
November 5, 200322 yr how ironic would it be if cruz gets another gold glove? he had another exceptional year of fielding during the regular season. and the voting ends right after the regular season ends....
November 5, 200322 yr the guy got no pub before the playoffs Petter Gammons ALWAYS made it 100% clear throughout the entire season that Lee was the man at 1B. The entire team even said that, "if Derrek doesn't win it this year, the award is a joke." That's not pub?
