Houston Astros veteran Justin Verlander was named the AL Cy Young winner for the third time in his career, beating out Dylan Cease and Alek Manoah.
The veteran led the American League in several notable categories: ERA , WHIP and wins . He was also efficient with his strikeouts, fanning 185 batters in 175 innings. From mid-June to late-September, Verlander had a three-month stretch in which he was not credited with a loss.
This award caps off a dream season for Verlander, who helped the Astros win the World Series in six games over the Philadelphia Phillies. Verlander scored his first Fall Classic win in Game 5 after going 0-6 in his first eight career starts. In four starts this postseason, he went 2-0 with a 5.85 ERA and 25 strikeouts.
