The Arizona Diamondbacks made a strong showing in the 2026 Gold Glove finalists list, with four players earning nominations across key defensive positions in the National League. Catcher Gabriel Moreno joins the race alongside Freddy Fermin of the Padres and Luis Torrens of the Mets, despite Miami’s Joe Mack leading defensive metrics like Defensive Runs Saved and pitch framing.
Moreno’s edge comes from his extensive experience, logging over 200 more innings at the position than his competitors, though Torrens leads in overall defensive metrics. At shortstop, Geraldo Perdomo was named a finalist, facing stiff competition from Masyn Winn of the Cardinals and Dansby Swanson of the Cubs, despite Winn’s dominant metrics and incumbent advantage after winning in 2025.
Perdomo’s inclusion is notable given his underwhelming season following a standout 2025 campaign, while right fielder Corbin Carroll also earned a spot, continuing his defensive improvement after being a finalist last year. The voting process combines manager and coach ballots—accounting for 75% of the total—with a sabermetric component making up the remaining 25%.
