2022 Cy Young Award futures wagers
70 MLB.com experts have voted for the Cy Young Award. DraftKings Sportsbook offers some potential candidates you can bet on to win the award.
Dylan Cease didn't even get one of the first-place votes for the American League Cy Young Award. Ceas has the fourth-best odds on DraftKings Sportsbook. He's performed better than his numbers indicate. His ERA is solid but his xERA and FIP are better. He has allowed one run or fewer in five of his eight starts and only three home runs.
Justin Verlander is the current favorite to win the American League Cy Young Award. He underwent Tommy John surgery in October 2020. Verler is one of six starters with a sub-2.00 ERA and ranks second at 1.38. Nestor Cortes is second with 1:1.35. He hasn't seen any dip in his velocity since his last full season in 2019.
Pablo López, a Marlins pitcher, is the top vote-getter in the National League and has good odds to win the Cy Young Award. He had a bad start against the Nationals on Wednesday, but otherwise has been dominant. Max Scherzer is no longer the leader, because he will miss six to eight weeks with an oblique strain. Corbin Burnes and Carlos Rodón are also in contention, while Walker Buehler is not. The next two starts for Lónes are against Braves and Rays. The Braves are one of the most strikeout-prone teams in baseball.
