Good to see a lot of first timers on there.

I find these gold glove awards a joke. The guys who win year after year are normally given a defensive award because of their offensive contributions more so then their defensive abilities. There are certainly some arguements for some of the guys who won it this year vs guys who didnt. Adam Jones makes 8 errors, Mike Trout made 1 and basically identical fielding % yet Jones wins the Gold Glove? Hell, even Colby Rasmus had the identical fielding % as Jones, made 2 less errors and he doesnt win?

That was simply one example of the foolishness these awards bring. I cant be bothered to go looking at others.
