The latest Cy Young Award predictions are in, and the race is heating up. The American League (AL) and National League (NL) Cy Young Award favorites are pulling away from the competition, with Cam Schlittler and The Miz leading the way. Schlittler, an All-Star right-handed pitcher for the Yankees, is dominating with a 2.20 ERA, 2.72 FIP, and 123 innings pitched. He's also leading the AL with 4.1 bWAR and a .205 opponents' average. The Miz, on the other hand, is a force to be reckoned with in the NL. Since May 1, he's pitched to a 0.87 ERA in 82 1/3 innings and has an MLB-best 13.6 K/9 ratio. He's also leading the NL with a 1.57 ERA, 2.09 FIP, and 173 strikeouts. These two pitchers are setting the bar high, and it's anyone's guess who will take home the coveted Cy Young Award at the end of the season. But one thing is for sure: the competition is fierce, and the race is far from over.
