Around SBN: Lance Berkman Could Have Torn ACL

Gold Glove Award Winners Announced Tonight

It's all a bit different this year, with three nominees for each Gold Glove announced in advance, and also the outfielders are now split into LF, CF and RF, rather than CF, CF and CF as has traditionally been the case. Two Diamondbacks are nominated - and it really should have been a clean-sweep in the outfield, but it seems Justin Upton's errors were too large a splinter in the eye of the voters. Carlos Beltran somehow managed to get nominated, which can only have been some kind of typographical error.

Here's the full list of NL nominees - reigning champions are marked with a *

The show is televised on ESPN2 and starts at 7pm. I'll update this with word on the D-backs' success or otherwise. Feel free to chat about the nomimations and winners.

I still think Montero should have at least gotten a nomination...

But I guess I’m just a homer. I read on Beyond the Box Score that he was the #2 defensive catcher this season though… but I guess that all depends on how you calculate things.

Again, as with Upton

I think the errors were hard for balloters to overlook. Next year, assuming he is up to his second-half standard, I wouldn’t be surprised…

I used to work concessions at University of Arizona football games, and the rare times that ESPN broadcasted a game, the whole thing would take at LEAST an hour longer because they demand so many long and tedious commercial breaks.

"Cancel your plans for the rest of the night"

One of the commentators just said. They have got through approximately three minutes of game time in the past 20 minutes. At this rate, if the show starts before 11pm East Coast, I’ll be astonished.

Major, major screw-up by ESPN.

Ah, you caught me

watching Odysseus on Sy-Fy. And yes, it does feel different winning in the AL – you get a lot more ESPN coverage and name recognition…

Is it mid-February yet?

You put it that way

I can see how it would feel different. It might actually feel like an award

Tulo IS a great shortstop

Willie Bloomquist can’t hold a candle to him sorry gang

You won't hear me arguing

that point. Insert the name Stephen Drew instead of Bloomquist…

Of course not

I would be neighborly and send him some Social Distortion CDs or something, though. (Man needs more… better taste in music)

That is kind of how it works

They really need an audience

so there can be some kind of applause. It seems so.. wrong to hand out awards to utter silence

spotlights. It was a nice, cheesy effect.

On ESPN 3

they keep showing the same ads over and over again. I get it, the polo season is coming up and JC Penny’s wants me to shop there

Votto

Phillips and Polanco each led UZR at their positions, and Tulo was basically right there, just behind Barmes.

Fun Fact:

Did you know the winner of the NL Right Fielder Gold Glove went to Arizona State?

Gold Glove for Pedroia and Either?

A-S-U! A-S-U!
