Rawlings and their fielding ballot

By Tangotiger, 03:24 PM

Here’s the ballot

If we look at Career Gold Gloves, we see the following guys as missing from the ballot: 1B - George Scott, 3B - Ventura, SS - Tony Fernandez, Trammell, OF - Barry Bonds, Dwayne Murphy.  And that’s it.  In short, the ballot could have been constructed almost entirely by this list, rather than talking to any experts.  The only thing getting the experts feedback did was ensure that Derek Jeter would be on the ballot, and Barry Bonds would be off it.

I’d like to write-in Gary Pettis and Darin Erstad.
