Born April 16, 1991
Newport Beach, CA, USA
He won the Gold Glove at third base in every one of his first ten seasons, from 2013 to 2022, and six Platinum Gloves as the best fielder in his league. Only one other player has won one in each of his first ten seasons: Ichiro Suzuki, from 2001.
The bat came with it: 353 home runs, 1,184 runs batted in and a .282 average across thirteen seasons, with five Silver Sluggers and eight All-Star selections. He led the National League in home runs three times and in runs batted in twice, all of it between 2015 and 2018.
Seven of those seasons were at Coors Field, and the discount that invites is one every Colorado hitter carries. He asked to be traded, went to St. Louis in 2021, and kept winning the Gold Glove there. He is still playing.
