Sean Manaea received some praise for his bounceback 2024 season with the Mets, a lone fifth-place vote on the NL Cy Young ballot.
Atlanta’s Chris Sale and Detroit’s Tarik Skubal each won their first Cy Young Award on Wednesday night after the left-handers shared the MLB lead with 18 wins while leading their respective leagues in strikeouts and ERA.
Skubal is still ascending as Detroit's ace, while Sale's resurgence in Atlanta marks the latest chapter in his storied career.
The Tigers' left-hander now has a Cy Young Award to go with his AL pitching Triple Crown.
