Zach Davies is a Rawlings Gold Glove finalist

Zach Davies had one of the worst seasons ever for a Cubs starting pitcher, posting a 5.78 ERA and 1.601 WHIP in 32 starts covering 148 innings. Among other things, he led the National League in walks allowed (75) and served up a career high 25 home runs.

Nevertheless, he might walk away with a 2021 postseason award:

In traditional fielding numbers, Davies did pretty well. He handled 35 chances in 2021 (13 putouts, 22 assists) without an error and 33 percent of baserunners who tried to steal against him were thrown out (league average is 25 percent).
