Full List Of 2020 National League, American League Gold Glove Award Winners

The 2020 MLB season was a special one for the Los Angeles Dodgers as they won their first World Series since 1988. The shortened schedule has now come and gone, so awards season is currently in full swing for the league.

This week saw the 2020 Rawlings Gold Glove Award winners announced during a one-hour special on ESPN. The Dodgers had one Gold Glove winner in 2019, with Cody Bellinger winning his first in right field.

L.A. also had one winner in 2020, and it was also at the right field position, although this time it wasn’t Bellinger. Mookie Betts took home his fifth career Gold Glove Award in 2020, his first season in a Dodgers uniform.

The award was well-deserved as Betts is known to be the best defensive right fielder in baseball, and now he has Gold Gloves in both leagues as proof.

After the acquisition of Betts, Bellinger moved over to center field and again had a terrific defensive season. He was named a finalist to win his second Gold Glove although lost out to San Diego Padres center fielder Trent Grisham.

Grisham was one of 11 first-time Gold Glove Award winners this season, a list that includes Atlanta Braves pitcher Max Fried, Chicago Cubs shortstop Javier Baez and St. Louis Cardinals left fielder Tyler O’Neill in the National League.

First-time winners in the American League are L.A. Angels pitcher Griffin Canning, Seattle Mariners first baseman Evan White, Cleveland Indians second baseman Cesar Hernandez, Texas Rangers third baseman Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Mariners shortstop J.P. Crawford, Chicago White Sox center fielder Luis Robert and Rangers right fielder Joey Gallo.

There were some familiar faces winning Gold Gloves in addition Betts earning his fifth, as Nolan Arenado (Colorado Rockies) and Alex Gordon (Kansas City Royals) both won their eighth. Gordon has already announced his retirement from MLB, so someone else in the AL will finally have a chance to win the left field award in 2021.

Gold Gloves are typically voted on by managers and coaches around the league, though they are not permitted to vote for their own players. The coaches/manager votes usually account for 75% of the formula, and the SABR Defensive Index make up the remaining 25%.

This season was different since it was 60 games and teams only played opponents in their division and those from the opposite league. Because of that, SABR Defensive Index made up 100% of the voting.
