Having a strong defense was a big reason why the Milwaukee Brewers were World Champions in 2026. Two of their everyday starters in the field received National League Gold Glove Awards, with Jackson Chourio winning in left field and Brice Turang winning at second base.

It's fitting that the Brewers' best two position players were Gold Glovers. Turang led the team with 7.3 bWAR, with Chourio finishing second at 4.9. Not only were they key bats at the top of their lineup, but they also provided excellent defense to aid a strong pitching staff.

Chourio and Turang were the only announced finalists for this season. So Milwaukee went 2-for-2 in turning finalists into Gold Glovers.
