The winners for the 2024 Rawlings Gold Glove were revealed Sunday night by Major League Baseball.
The Gold Glove award has been around since 1957, crowning the best defensive player at each position in each league. It was initially an MLB-wide honor, but in 1958 it was divided up into AL and NL. Also, there was a stretch where three outfielders per league won the honor instead of splitting up the three specific outfield positions, but now it’s back to left field, center field and right field, respectively, in each league.
Winners are determined by votes by managers and coaches (75%) and a SABR-provided statistical component (25%). Team employees are forbidden from voting for their own players,
