New Gold Glove rules

By Tangotiger, 03:52 PM

This comes straight from Rawlings:

To qualify for consideration for a particular position, a player must have played a minimum number of games at that position:

- A catcher must have played in at least half of his team’s games by his team’s 128th game (a minimum of 64 games);

- All infielders and outfielders must have played in at least 55% of his team’s games by his team’s 128th game (a minimum of 70 games);

- All infielders and position-specific outfielders must also have played in the field for at least 525 innings in those minimum 70 games;

- Outfielders with more than 55% of total games played but without 55% at one specific outfield position qualify at the specific outfield position where he played the most innings if he played a minimum of 75% of his total innings (a minimum of 475 innings at the specific outfield position);

- All pitchers must have pitched in at least 128 innings by his team’s 128th game
