Cardinals' Masyn Winn and Victor Scott II Snubbed in Gold Glove Award Predictions originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Last season, a record-tying 14 players took home their first Rawlings Gold Glove award.

This season, a pair of young St. Louis Cardinals - shortstop Masyn Winn and centerfielder Victor Scott II - are seeking to become first-time recipients. However, Winn and Scott are not the current favorites to take home the hardware.

A panel of MLB.com writers recently predicted Atlanta Braves shortstop Nick Allen and Chicago Cubs centerfielder Pete Crow-Armstrong will claim the honor at their respective positions.

Allen leads all NL shortstops with nine runs prevented and an outs above average of 12. Winn, however, is right on his heels with eight runs prevented and an OAA of 10. Both are tied with two errors apiece, however Winn has a slight edge in fielding percentage, .992 to Allen's .991. The panelists also had the Cubs' Dansby Swanson and the Los Angeles Dodgers' Mookie Betts in the mix.

If Winn were to win the award, he'd become the first Cardinals shortstop to do so since Edgar Renteria in 2003. St. Louis legend Ozzie Smith holds the record with 13 career gold glove awards, all of which he won between 1980-'92.

Scott's chances of over taking Pete Crow-Armstrong in the centerfielder gold glove race might be a little more difficult. Crow-Armstrong leads all NL centerfielders with nine runs prevented and an OAA of 10. Scott is right behind him with eight runs prevented and a nine OAA. However, Crow-Armstrong has played 100 more innings than Scott this season,and has registered an NL-leading 221 putouts without an error.

Harrison Bader was the last Cardinals centerfielder to win a Gold Glove award in 2021. Jim Edmonds, Willie McGee and Curt Flood - who primarily played centerfield - each won multiple outfielder Gold Gloves before the rule was changed back in 2011 to award the individual outfield positions.
