	ESPN.com: MLB - A-Rod, Renteria should win first Gold Gloves
		A Gold Glove winner, in my view, isn't necessarily someone who's always appearing on the Web Gems segment of "Baseball Tonight." A Gold Glove winner makes the routine play consistently and has special skills above and beyond the norm.
		This would be his first Gold Glove; Roberto Alomar, now in the NL, won 10 of the last 11 AL awards (Chuck Knoblauch won in '97).
		Note: If Cesar Izturis had won the regular job in L.A., he could have nabbed the award, but he platoons (playing against lefties); still, he's the most spectacular shortstop in the league.
