Literally came here to ask if the Brewers had ever won two in a season.

Perkins was better defensively than Frelick this season, and it wasnt even that close.

Congrats to the two Brewers....how cool to get two.

Edited the title to reflect both winners.  Very cool to have one, awesome to have two!

They give out the gloves at each of the three OF spots now.

Perkins was up against other NL CFers where he came in at +8 DRS (6th) and +9 FRV (9th).

Competition wasn’t quite as stacked against Sal in RF where his +16 DRS was eleven runs better than 2nd place, while his +8 FRV was five runs better than the runner up.

So great. I love those two players.

AND on the Minor League side we have one SS Cooper Pratt bringing home the golden hardware.

Make that Platinum Winner Brice Turang and Team Gold Glove

I have to admit that I sometimes find Murphy humor a bit juvenile but this did make me laugh

I sorta agree with Murph while Sal does place great D the stats don't lie, I did find he pulled a Brauny on some of his outfield catches and dive, slide, or jump when he didn't have to a couple times. So it's good to know his teammates and coaches rib him on that as well. :)

Good job, Glove Boys!

I wish Blake Perkins could somehow have been recognized, too!

[JulianBennett]

Absolutely! So happy for these guys. Future is bright.

Welcome to the site!

Also congrats to Silver Slugger William Contreras!

This is awesome. I'm usually on Fangraphs which uses a different defense metric, so I didn't realize that Turang was rated quite so highly by others (4.7 WAR overall on Baseball Reference!)
