Not a single Met got even an honorable mention among the Gold Glove announced winners, that I noticed.

My shortlist of potential Met Gold Glove candidates would include (surprisingly) Alonso, as well as Matz and deGrom at pitcher.



But when the numbers are crunched, I don't think any of them would be particularly close to winning.

Gold doesn't go "clank" when a baseball hits it.

If things go the way we want them to next week, this will be the first time the Mets ever won two of the Big Three awards in the same year, and this decade will have more of the Big Three awards than any previous decade. The list of Mets award winners is dominated by pitchers. Alonso would only be the second position player to be so honored.

Bastages!

Today's the day, isn't it? They'll announce the Rookie of the Year award?

[Benjamin Grimm]

And the winner is Player Pete!

[Guest 41Forever]

He got 29 of 30 first place votes!

[kcmets]

Anyone know who the dope is that wasn't #30 and who they voted for instead?

[G-Fafif]

Andrew Baggarly, Giants beat writer for the Athletic, went for Soroka first, Pete second. Poor misguided soul.

Yeah!



Dumbazz here thought Yordan Alvarez was in NL

[G-Fafif]

Unanimous would have been sweeter, but Pete gets the same size award either way.

Hard to get unanimity from a group that large.

He might consummate the marriage on the parade float.

Teammates will mob the bride and rip her shirt off.
