I've been able to adjust other all-time greats (such as Sandberg and Ozzie Smith) but worry about putting "too much range and arm" for a first baseman. I feel that Hernandez should be rated as an 80 glove man at first base, but I don't want to give him so much range or arm that he is playing like a super human.
bare in mind that gold glove voting in real life is pretty terrible.
