The Astros had five players named as finalists for Gold Glove Awards, but the results announced Sunday evening were not especially kind to them. Only one of the Astros’ nominated players, Zack Greinke, ended up winning the award, despite many having some deserving cases.
Everyone saw just how good of a defender Greinke is during his impeccable performance in World Series Game Seven. This is his sixth consecutive Gold Glove Award, and the fact that he won in the National League despite spending the season’s final two months in the American League underscores just how good he is.
