The Yankees are unfortunately watching the MLB playoffs from home, but a few of them did get the news that they could be in line for some post-2023 awards. Today, Rawlings announced three Gold Glove finalists for each defensive position in the respective leagues.
Of greatest interest is rookie Anthony Volpe’s place in the proceedings. Manager Aaron Boone raved about his defense all year long, and he got his wish with Volpe being up for the Gold Glove. He’ll be looking to succeed the Astros’ Jeremy Peña as a first-year winner. Peña will not be one of the two other finalists though; instead, Volpe is joined by the Rangers’ Corey Seager and the Twins’ Carlos Correa.
