The AL Cy Young Award race became somewhat crowded after the All-Star Break, and until the last week or two there weren’t any clear-cut frontrunners among the elite group. Yankees ace Gerrit Cole was the favorite to win the award at the start of the 2021 season, however, Cole’s campaign lost some edge after he missed two starts in August while on the COVID-IL — and then he had his outing on September 7th cut short due to a tweaked hamstring. A more recent start against Cleveland on September 19th was a doozy and didn’t help his candidacy.
Where does Gerrit Cole stand in the Cy Young Award race?
