Alex Bregman has earned his first Gold Glove award, being recognized as the best defensive third baseman in the American League. This accolade comes after being a finalist four times previously. Bregman joins Doug Rader as the only Houston Astros third basemen to receive this honor.

Alongside Bregman, other finalists included José Ramírez and Ernie Clement. The selection process combines votes from managers and coaches with metrics from the SABR Defensive Index, which evaluates various defensive skills.
