Gold Gloves come mostly from reputation or offensive production.
Rafeal Palmeiro won at first base once playing the majority of his games as a DH.
Johnny Damon is not that good. Nor is Jeter. Most "webgem"-type plays come off of either poor range or player screwups.
I did like how Orlando Hudson seemed completely shocked he beat out Brian Roberts.
