Four teams have won the first-four years of the RGGA with the Cleveland Indians in 2020, the Houston Astros in 2021, the New York Yankees in 2022, and the Toronto Blue Jays in 2023 for the AL.  

In the NL, the Chicago Cubs won in 2020, the St. Louis Cardinals in 2021-22, and the Milwaukee Brewers in 2023 for the first-four years of the RGGA.

According to Rawlings website, “The award determines the winners of the 18 defensive position Awards, each team’s manager and up to six coaches on his staff vote from a pool of qualified players in their League and cannot vote for players from their own team. In 2013, Rawlings added the SABR Defensive Index™ (SDI) to the Rawlings Gold Glove Award selection process, which comprises approximately 25 percent of the overall selection total, with the managers’ and coaches’ votes continuing to carry the majority”.  

The players that are the 2024 RGGA finalists that were selected to the 2024 All-Star Game were Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez, New York Yankees right fielder Juan Soto, Kansas City Royals right-handed pitcher Seth Lugo, Kansas City Royals left-handed pitcher Cole Ragans, Texas Rangers second baseman Marcus Semien, Boston Red Sox center fielder Jared Duran, Kansas City Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr., Minnesota Twins second baseman Willi Castro, Atlanta Braves left-handed pitcher Chris Sale, Philadelphia Phillies right-handed pitcher Zack Wheeler, Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper, and Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Will Smith.
