Masyn Winn Snubbed for Gold Glove Despite Elite Defensive Metrics

Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn was reportedly snubbed for a 2026 Gold Glove, with metrics suggesting he outperformed the winner. Winn led in Outs Above Average (OAA) with 19, compared to Perdomo's 16, and also led all shortstops in Defensive Runs Saved. His arm strength was in the 96th percentile, significantly higher than Perdomo's 50th percentile, making his omission a point of contention.
