Rays RHP Alex Cobb and 3B Evan Longoria were named finalists today for AL Gold Glove awards.
Three finalists are named at each position.
Cobb is competing against Boston's Chris Sale and Toronto's Marcus Stroman.
"It really means a lot to be recognized for something I take so much pride in,'' Cobb said. "I've always considered fielding my position a major part of being a complete pitcher. Thank you to all the managers and coaches who voted for me. "
Longoria is competing against Baltimore's Manny Machado and Cleveland's Jose Ramirez.
Longoria won the award twice previously, during 2009 and 2010 All-Star seasons.
