November 2, 201114 yr Author Looking at the original website, it looks like they may have had the winners posted all along. Thought it was just a formatting issue, as the first names listed were in a slightly smaller font...but, it looks like everybody they've named on the show were those guys.
November 2, 201114 yr Ramirez and Gardner got snubbed in the AL. Upton and Bruce should have won over Ethier and Kemp is the person who deserved it the least. Can't believe he won it.

November 2, 201114 yr Kemp is the only glaring problem I notice this year. If this is a straight up defensive award, it should have gone to Gomez from Milwaukee this year, although you can talk about how few innings he played. Maybe Maybin from the Padres instead. I'd also have gone with Gardner over Gordon, but that's not necessarily one I'm hugely bothered by. Am I correct in thinking that outfield Gold Gloves don't go one each to a left fielder, right fielder and center fielder but that it can be any combination of outfielders?

Now they do specifically recognize all 9 positions, and don't lump the outfield all together.
November 2, 201114 yr ^ I like that as well. There are distinct differences to how those positions are played and I like them separate.
