LOL at Adam Jones winning another gold glove, dude is a bum. Getting tired of voters mailing it in with these ballots. If you don't have a clue just submit a blank ballot ffs.

Matt get lost you homer. Adam Jones is a terrible fielder. Take off the blinders.

I find it hard to believe that the best fielders in the AL came from three teams.

Agree with almost all of those, the SABR involvement is clearly working out nicely.

- Parra and Simmons were no-brainers
- Legaras of the Mets should have been a finalist, he could supplant Gomez with a full year next season
- Arenado is tremendous, but wasn't sure he had enough recognition yet. Well deserved.
- Count me in the camp that isn't wild about Adam Jones in CF. Curious selection, though I can't think of anyone who was egregiously robbed here. Aaron Hicks, maybe? Probably wasn't even a finalist but that cannon is sexy.

ITT, Baltimore fans are salty, fail to offer a rebuttal. Lame, Mouthbreather stuff.

According to the SDI rankings that now make up 25% of the vote, Adam Jones was the worst CF in all of baseball, even worse that Shin Soo Choo.

Adam LaRoche, who has a great rep with the glove, came in pretty shitty according to this as well.

The 10 worst defenders in all of baseball? Michael Young, Miggy Cabrera, David Freese, Michael Cuddyer, Rickie Weeks, Jed Lowrie, Dan Uggla, Adam Jones, Dom Brown, David Murphy.

What are the voters seeing in Jones? I don't watch enough Baltimore games to notice that he's particularly bad, but I don't see him as particularly good, either.
