Rawlings to add SABR to GG Award selection

3

Rawlings is trying to drag their corner of Major League Baseball into the 21st Century, by adding defensive statistical scores to the polling process of selecting GG winners. "Beginning in 2013, the managers/coaches vote will constitute a majority of the Rawlings Gold Glove Award winners’ selection tally, with the new SDI [SABR Defensive Index™] comprising of the remainder of the overall total. The exact breakdown of the selection criteria will be announced once the SDI is created later this summer."
