Sale is within striking distance of taking home his first career Cy Young. Between 2012 and 2018, he received Cy Young votes every season, finishing as a finalist twice - in 2014 and 2017.

He’s never received more than two first-place votes for the award. We’ll find out soon enough if that changes.
