The Chicago Cubs have 6 finalist for the Gold Glove award

The Chicago Cubs have a lot of work to do this offseason to fix their roster, which failed to get them past the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Division Series.
The failures of the pitching staff showed during the series, as the Cubs and manager Craig Counsell turned to a bullpen game in Game 5, which hopefully will lead to them finding someone to pitch behind Matthew Boyd.
The one thing that didn’t fail the Cubs this season was their defense. One of the best in Major League Baseball, the Cubs have six finalists for the Gold Glove award, with two previous winners.
The Chicago Cubs have six finalists for the Gold Glove award
In a division (the National League Central) that features two of the top teams in baseball for defense, the Cubs have the most players to finish as a finalist for the Gold Glove award, with starting pitcher Matthew Boyd, left fielder Ian Happ, second baseman Nico Hoerner, rookie third baseman Matt Shaw, centerfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong, and catcher Carson Kelly all receiving the honor.

Happ is a three-time winner (2022-2024), while Hoerner has one (2023) under his belt. Boyd, Crow-Armstrong, Shaw, and Kelly have never won the award before in their careers.
The Cubs should build on their defense moving forward
The Cubs could explore signing and trading for players to boost their defense and prevent runs, especially with the pitching staff they currently have, as defense is quickly becoming a barometer for teams to be successful.
With the Cubs’ unwillingness to spend big, signing players like Jose Iglesias, who is a defensive first player, but has a good bat, could be an option for the Cubs this offseason.
