"Gold Glove winners were determined by a combination of voting from MLB managers, coaches, and the SABR Defensive Index. All 30 managers, and up to six coaches from each organization cast a vote from a pool of players in their respective league, excluding players from their own team. Manager and coaches votes accounted for 75% of the vote, and the SABR Defensive Index rounded out the remaining 25%."
"There were nine first-time Gold Glove winners in 2025, five shy of the record for the most since the awards were first implemented in 1957. The record number of first-time winners was initially set in 2022 and occurred again last season. There had been at least 13 first-time award winners from 2022-2024. Last season was the fifth consecutive year with at least 10 first-time Gold Glove recipients, which was the longest streak in the history of the award."
