Gold Gloves - ARod vs Jeter

Last year, much was made of Alex Rodriguez problems with the glove at third base (E-Rod)
He finished the year with 24 errors, compared to 15 for the teammate on his left, Derek Jeter.
Since 2004 when Rodriguez joined the Yankees, he has 49 errors at third compared to only 43 for Jeter at short in the same period.

Yet, this year things are looking different. In addition to his success at the plate, A-Rod is much more comfortable at third while Jeter is having more trouble at short.
A-Rod has only 5 errors so far while Jeter has more than twice that (12) and is on pace for his worst defensive year of his career.
