NL Gold Gloves: Third Base

Here are the NL Gold Glove candidates at third base. I'll evaluate them using Fielding Win Shares and Fielding Wins Above Average (derived from fielder runs above average on BP, divided by 9):

Third base   FWS    FWAA
Zimmerman    6.4     2.6
A.Ramirez    5.2     2.1
Feliz        4.9     1.3
Wright       5.1     1.2
Rolen        3.8     1.4

Zimmerman, Ramirez and Wright could each win this. Rolen departed too soon, as usual.

Zimmerman put on an incredible show in the last 10 days. He may be too obscure to win it. I bet Ramirez or Wright get the actual award. Wright's defense certainly was not the reason for the Mets collapse.

Easy call for me. Zimmerman gets the award. Ramirez finishes second (and that guy can flat out play third).

The iron glove goes to Kevin Kouzmanoff.
