"The utility Gold Glove was determined in a separate fashion, via a defensive formula calculated by SABR and Rawlings."
Major League Baseball announced Gold Glove winners for both the National and American Leagues. Selection combined traditional votes and statistical analysis: 75 percent of the result came from votes cast by all 30 managers and up to six coaches per team, while 25 percent was based on SABR's Defensive Index metrics. The awards reflect both subjective evaluations by managers and coaches and objective defensive metrics. The utility Gold Glove was awarded separately based on a defensive formula jointly calculated by SABR and Rawlings.
