It wasn't that stupid 3 months ago when the article was published. You and YOLO go to your room(s?) and think about what you've done.
Are all votes in on CY vote? Or do voters get a chance to see Cole and Verlander in postseason before final vote? I am thinking all votes are in but I am not sure. If there was ever a time and a situation for co-CY award winners this would be it. Both have had phenomenal seasons. Verlander had the no-hitter so that may very well give him the edge if all votes are in. Cole was unhittable in the ALDS so if I was a voter and I had not voted yet I would be tempted to change my vote to Cole.
Yeah, I would totally change my vote to Cole right now based on pure emotion. It really isn't fair to Verlander because he got rocked on short rest.
I feel bad for Verlander at his age having to pitch on short rest. You have to give him credit though after that rough first inning he was impressive in giving us a chance to rally. Unfortunately game 4 was one of those games we spent much of the time with our bats on our shoulders. Seemed like the only pitches we were swinging at were down in the dirt.
Likely his last best chance to win it. Was really hoping he'd take it home, Cole will get his. Verlander too good to end his career with just 1. Very happy he got this.
