why do you quote innings like it's some huge determinant? It's not. Voters don't give a flip about innings- as long as you have at least 180 innings, you have a chance...

The ERA, wins, K's- now THOSE are why Sale would win the Cy Young.

And the biggest thing- the season isn't over yet. Sale has to continue to pitch well.

I quote innings, not because the voters care, but because if everything else is mostly equal, they'd turn to innings and say, well they've been the same pitcher, but Sale has done it by pitching a full season and Kluber has not
