I haven’t checked the numbers, but I feel like Hudson winning is more about reputation than how he actually did.

The last time he was a good second baseman was circa 2005, so yes.

Hudson and Victorino both had negative UZRs this year. wheeeeee.

BUT VICTORINO IS FUN LOVING AND PLAYS THE GAME THE RIGHT WAY AND IS HAWAIIAN

I hear he once took a long, circuitous path to a fly ball just so he could run into the second baseman first.
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

Keith Law called the voters out today on ESPNews and said he didn’t deserve it. But we both like Bourn, so I guess it’s okay.

Rank according fangraph UZR/150-(Bold is negative UZR)
Yadier Molina- CATCHER MOST IMPORTANT POSITION CAN’T CONVERT D INTO NUMBER!!!!ONE
Adrian Gonzalez 2 6
Orlando Hudson-7
Ryan Zimmerman-1
Jimmy Rollins-5
Shane Victorino-17
Michael Bourn
Matt Kemp- 11
Not horrible, UZR isn’t perfect. The only ons that aren’t deserving are Rectum face(not sure who to give it too, Werth is more deserving) and O Dog (Should be Utley). Rollins is a little of a stretch he wasn’t the best this year. I mean Renteria had a phenomenal year!

If you surround something in dashes, it automatically does strikethroughs. If you use a spaces, you’ll be fine

I can’t really think who I would take over Rollins.
Chase Utley is a really good defender and deserves at least one Gold Glove for it. Can’t the voters occidentally get one right by giving him one for his bat?
Please hit better, Randy Winn.
I’m really surprised Utley hasn’t won one yet especially with his lofty offensive numbers.

Jack Wilson was the best this year, but of course he spent half a year in the AL, so he wasn’t going to win an NL GG.
The three best SS by UZR who played the whole year in the NL were Hardy, Theriot and Furcal. Rollins was right after them, so it’s a solid enough choice.

Would he stop being classy if Winn signed with the Dodgers?

Ugh. How do Pujols and Utley not win?
And Victorino winning is hilarious. He’s Benard like in CF. Rowand is better than him defensively.
Gonzalez is an excellent defender.

I was about to say that.
Gonzalez really did deserve it yo.
But Utley does deserve one.

I’m with you re: Utley. Law also said that Utley deserved to win.

Eh, I don’t know that we can make statements that definitive. I’d say Pujols is probably better, but it’s just so difficult to measure defense I can’t be sure of that…

Managers and coaches voting for gold glove actually might be worse than writers. They can’t vote for their own players so they wouldn’t see much of the other players in the league. Writers would watch more games while the managers and coaches are focused on their own teams.

I’m generally against giving GG’s to corner outfielders. Yes, Winn’s UZR is really good, but it wouldn’t be anything special if he played CF. Those guys are the better defenders and deserve it. Mike Cameron getting left off is a joke.
Shane Victorino even being available for this award is a joke.
My Will Clark will kick your honor student's ass!
How much did Charlie Manuel pay the voters to put his guy in?

La la la
Rollins, the vocal leader of the NL champions and the catalyst of their offense and defense, ranked as average in Ultimate Zone Rating (UZR), with a score of 2.7, and Range Factor (RF), where he scored 3.9, but voters clearly liked his Gold Glove resume and his .990 fielding percentage, the best at his position in the Major Leagues.
Is that so?
Old-school Phillies manager Charlie Manuel might not know a lot about UZR or RF, but he knows good defense when he sees it.
“When Jimmy is right offensively,” Manuel said, “with the way he plays defense, that’s what makes him one of the best players in the game.”
Oh I see.
