"Boston Red Sox Crochet earned four out of a possible 30 first-place votes for the Cy Young Award. Garrett Crochet had a stellar first season with the Red Sox, with the southpaw establishing himself as Boston's long-awaited ace and one of the top arms in baseball. But it wasn't enough for the 26-year-old lefty to unseat Tarik Skubal as the top pitcher in the American League."
"Crochet finished in second place in voting for the AL Cy Young Award on Wednesday, with Skubal winning back-to-back awards as the top pitcher in the AL for the first time since Pedro Martinez took home the honor in both 1999 and 2000. Skubal finished with 26 out of a possible 30 first-place votes for the award, while Crochet earned the other four first-place votes. As far as total points, Skubal won the vote over Crochet, 198-132."
Garrett Crochet finished second in AL Cy Young voting with four first-place votes and 132 points. Tarik Skubal won the award with 26 first-place votes and 198 points, becoming the first pitcher since Pedro Martinez (1999–2000) to win back-to-back AL Cy Youngs. Hunter Brown finished third with 80 points, and Aroldis Chapman placed seventh with four votes. Crochet went 18–5 with a 2.59 ERA, led the AL in innings (205.1) and strikeouts (255), and joined Martinez and Chris Sale as Red Sox pitchers with at least 250 strikeouts and 50 or fewer walks in a season.
