The finalists for this year's Gold Glove Awards were announced by Rawlings on Wednesday morning. The Chicago Cubs and Toronto Blue Jays led their respective leagues and tied for the overall majors lead with six finalists apiece.
The Gold Glove Awards are determined, by and large, through voting conducted among MLB managers and coaches. There's also an aggregate statistical input that weighs defensive metrics "derived from batted ball location-based data and those collected from play-by-play accounts." Said statistical index accounts for just 25% of the process, however.
Here are the American League finalists, listed alphabetically by position.
