After Being Robbed Last Year, Javy Báez Wins First Gold Glove

Javy Báez was robbed of a Gold Glove last season despite leading all MLB infielders with 19 outs above average and tying for first among all shortstops with 26 defensive runs saved, so removing the human element of the vote helped him this year. He won the Fielding Bible Award at shortstop last week and was awarded his first Gold Glove Tuesday.

The 2020 Fielding Bible Award winner at shortstop is Javier Báez (@javy23baez) of the @Cubs

This is his 4th Fielding Bible Award.
