As of late, the Detroit Tigers have had quite the association with the Cy Young award. Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer both won the award while wearing a Detroit uniform, and former Tiger David Price won the trophy prior to arriving in Motown. In fact, there was a time when Detroit employed three consecutive Cy Young winners in Verlander, Scherzer and Price.
Times have changed the Tigers. Scherzer and Price have both departed, but Verlander remains. The longtime Tiger is one of the few pitchers in the current rotation capable of winning another Cy Young award.
