If he wins, Salvy could take home his sixth Gold Glove, which would tie Alex Gordon for second-most in club history behind only Alex Gordon and Frank White (eight each). But he fares poorly among other metrics, such as Defensive Runs Above Average and Defensive Runs Saved and he was dead last among catchers in the league in Framing Runs. Salvy led all American League catchers with at least 500 innings caught in caught stealing percentage, nailing 44 percent of all would-be basestealers. Salvador Pérez is a finalist at catcher with Oakland’s Sean Murphy and Houston’s Martín Maldonado.
However, Nicky Lopez was not listed as a finalist despite ranking well in defensive metrics at shortstop. Taylor were the four Royals named Gold Glove finalists by the Rawlings Sporting Goods Company today. Salvador Pérez, Whit Merrifield, Andrew Benintendi, and Michael A.
