I think you're crazy. It's an award given out on reputation and popularity, not performance. There's no shortage of players and writers saying the same thing. Hate to bring up Palmeiro, because it's just too obvious and easy, but how seriously are you taking things when a full-time DH wins a GG in a landslide?
Back to the point though, factoring in Gold Gloves in fielding ratings would be foolish.
