Finalists for 2025 Rawlings Gold Glove Awards were announced on Wednesday morning, and Yankees lefty Max Fried and third baseman Ryan McMahon were on the list.
McMahon, who played 54 games with the Yankees following a midseason trade, is a finalist for the NL Award at third base, dating back to his time with the Rockies. His 6 Outs Above Average ranked in the 92nd percentile, according to Baseball Savant.
Fried is finalist for the AL pitching Gold Glove, along with two other players with New York ties — Jacob deGrom and Luis Severino.
Fried has long been one of the best fielding pitchers in all of baseball, as evidenced by his three NL Gold Glove Awards with the Atlanta Braves. The southpaw took home the award in three straight seasons from 2020-22.
Fried did commit a career-high four errors in 2025, but he also set career-best marks with 39 putouts, 10 defensive runs saved above average, and seven pickoffs. Fried allowed just six stolen bases all season and runners were caught stealing five times.
The Gold Glove winners will be announced on Sunday, Nov. 2, at 8:30 p.m.
