Pitcher:
There is no clear-cut favorite for the Fielding Bible Award for pitcher this season. Bartolo Colon led the way with eight Runs Saved, but there were 12 pitchers who finished between five and eight DRS. There was also a different leader in each of the four categories that comprise Runs Saved for pitchers — Range and Positioning, Stolen Base, Bunts, and GFP/DME. Jake Arrieta led in Range and Positioning Runs Saved with eight, Johnny Cueto led in Stolen Bases Runs Saved with four, Chase Anderson led in Bunts Runs Saved with two, and Zack Greinke led in GFP/DME with two.
Since the pitchers are so closely packed together with no obvious leader, voters may rely on their opinions of how each pitcher has performed defensively in the past. This could mean that for the third season in a row, Dallas Keuchel will win the Fielding Bible Award and the AL Gold Glove, and Zack Greinke will be the Gold Glove winner for the NL.
