Well, for one obvious thing, the WS doesn't count in Cy Young voting....
| Innings | Hits | Walks | Earned Runs | K's | WAR | WHIP | ERA | ||
| Verlander | 223 | 137 | 42 | 64 | 300 | 7.8 | .80 | 2.58 | |
| Cole | 212 | 142 | 48 | 59 | 326 | 6.9 | .89 | 2.50 |
Beyond that, explain to me why Cole is the clear winner Verlander?
Verlander pitched more innings but allowed fewer hits and walks. Cole had more strikeouts and had a slightly lower ERA.
I mean, I can SEE an argument for Cole, but I don't think it's clear by any means. Given the closeness of the stats, I'd probably lean towards Verlander just because he pitched more innings are roughly the exact same quality.
