Maldonado and Simmons win GG!

4th Angels shortstop to with the Gold Glove. I never saw Fregosi play, but Simmons is head and shoulders above Cabrera and Aybar. 3rd Angels catcher to win. However, Boone won 4 and Benji won 2. Maldonado's bat slowed down in the second half, but his defense never did.

The number of games that he caught might explain the offensive decline.

Well deserved. Defensively these two guys at their positions are the best in Angels history. Great to have them both at the same time. When was the last time we had two GG winners on the same team? It’s probably pretty rare. 

2002 Molina and Erstad

Other times it has happened

1995 J.T. Snow and Mark Langston

1988 Devon White and Bob Boone

1986 Gary Pettis and Bob Boone

1967 Bobby Knoop and Jim Fregosi

I saw Fregosi play all of his Angels career, and i can say that Simmons is a much better defender. I think Fregosi won his gg's because of how many dp's turned by him and Bobby Knoop. That is not to take anything  away from Jimmy. He was very good. The only ss i have seen that might be better than Simmons, is Ozzie Smith.
