Nolan Arenado

It seemed like every day we saw a play from Nolan Arenado that would make you so thankful that he is a member of the Cardinals. While you wanted Arenado for the offense, he is an elite defender who pulls off magnificent plays with the greatest of ease.

Arenado will look to get his ninth Gold Glove, and first with the Cardinals.

Arenado had six defensive runs saved, 10 outs above average, and eight runs prevented. He had a fielding percentage of .974.

He is up against Manny Machado of the San Diego Padres and Ryan McMahon of the Colorado Rockies.
