Looking for seconds! The Texas Rangers infielders have been named Rawlings Gold Glove finalists

Marcus Semien and Nathaniel Lowe are finalists for the 2024 Rawlings Gold Glove Award.

Both Texas Rangers infielders are looking for their second awards. Lowe received the award at first base in 2023. Semien received the award at second base for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2021.

The Gold Glove Awards will be announced on ESPN’s Baseball Tonight on November 3 at 7:30 p.m.

A year ago, the Rangers had three Gold Glove winners in Lowe, catcher Jonah Heim and right fielder Adolis Garcia.

According to MLB.com, winners at the nine standard positions will be selected by each team’s 30 MLB managers and up to six coaches from a pool of players in their league, excluding players from their own team. The manager/coach votes make up 75% of the selection total, while the SABR Defensive Index makes up the other 25%.

Rawlings worked with SABR to develop a special defensive formula that is separate from the traditional selection process used to select utility player finalists.
