Just one former Rays gamers – Nate Lowe – is represented, which is the one Rays related notes I may give you right here among the many nominees.
And nowhere to be seen? Rays 2024 heart fielder Jose Siri.
There are three major metrics we will use to see the numbers respect Siri’s glove, even when the voters didn’t, beginning with Statcast’s Fielding Run Worth (15 runs), the place he ranked within the Prime-5 in baseball.
Of notice: one man above him on that checklist was additionally not nominated, Cubs heart fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong (16 runs). Each gamers had ~1,000 innings logged in heart area this season, which is sufficient to be thought of an every-day participant on the place.
By the metric Outs Above Common, once more Siri ranked within the top-5 with a rating of 16, with the one outfielder ranked greater being DC’s Jacob Younger (20 OAA).
And by Defensive Runs Saved, Siri once more scores nicely, positioned within the Prime-10 in baseball with 12 DRS, once more tied with Crow-Armstrong. The one outfielder above them on that checklist is Boston proper fielder Wilyer Abreu.
Siri even ranked within the top-three AL Middle Fielders on SABR’s SDI checklist, which is meant to tell the voting course of.
To some extent these awards are a recognition contest, however to not even be nominated after dominating the stat sheets is irritating after a robust season from Siri in CF.
