The candidates at the two positions are as follows:
I’m disappointed Zack Godley wasn’t nominated instead of Dickey, simply so that we could have a trio of Zach/ks competing for the award this year. Our Zack will likely be the favorite going in, having won the title each of the past three seasons - in 2014-15 with the Los Angeles Dodgers, then last year as a Diamondback. But if the limited defensive metrics available in regard to pitchers are to be trusted, Greinke will be hard pushed to retain his title. By Baseball Info Solutions Defensive Runs Saved Above Average (DRS), all three men were solid.
