Arenado named Defensive Player of Year at 3B

On Tuesday, Arenado received his third National League Rawlings Gold Glove Award, three-fourths of which is determined by manager and coach votes, with the remainder based on a statistical formula approved by the Society for American Baseball Research. Arenado joined the Red Sox's Frank Malzone (1957-59) as the only third basemen in history to win Gold Gloves in their first three full Major League seasons.

Arenado also took home his first award from The Fielding Bible, voted on by a team of experts from the scouting, data science, analytics and media communities. The panel bases its voting on advanced metrics.
