Rizzo, Heyward Win Gold Gloves

The 2016 Gold Glove Awards were presented on Tuesday night, some week-plus after Rawlings announced the finalists for each position across the two leagues.
 
Some 75 percent of the voting is comprised of coaches and managers' picks -- though they're limited to their league and cannot pick their own players. The rest of the voting is derived from a statistical component.
