While plenty of fans tune in for home runs, on Sunday, it will be all about defense. The 2025 Rawlings Gold Glove award winners will be announced, and there are a few headlines to go over. 

Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Mookie Betts is a finalist at shortstop after winning the award multiple times in the outfield. And despite the Dodgers’ talent, the Chicago Cubs and Toronto Blue Jays lead the way with the most finalists at six apiece. 

The San Francisco Giants also have multiple players, with Logan Webb and Patrick Bailey both making the cut. If both can edge out their competition, they would be the first pitching/catching tandem to win the award since Adam Wainwright and Yadier Molina won it back in 2013.

Giants’ ace predicted to take home his first Gold Glove Award

Logan Webb is considered a ground-ball pitcher. His talent is having opposing hitters make weak contact, allowing his defense to shine behind him. 

He has yet to win the award, but that could all change tomorrow. He is up against David Peterson and Matthew Boyd, and Bleacher Report’s Zachary Rymer believes Webb will come out on top. 

“Webb is the top ground-ball pitcher in baseball, and he definitely gets in on the action as well as the Giants could ask. He was second in assists this year and started three double plays, ultimately resulting in +7 Defensive Runs Saved.”

Boyd and Peterson sit right behind Webb with +6 Defensive Runs Saved. But Webb’s NL-leading 31 assists should give him the edge here to take home his first Gold Glove award.
