The Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers lead the American League with seven AL Cy Young Award wins. The Red Sox’s Cy Young wins belong to Jim Lonborg (1967), Roger Clemens (1986, 1987, 1991), Pedro Martinez (1999, 2000), and Rick Porcello (2016), and the Tigers’ wins belong to Denny McLain (1968, 1969), Willier Hernandez (1984), Justin Verlander (2011), Max Scherzer (2013), and Tarik Skubal (2024, 2025).

To date, the Texas Rangers are the only AL team to never have won the Cy Young, but they’ve certainly come close. Ferguson Jenkins (1974) and Yu Darvish (2012) both finished second in voting, while Nolan Ryan (1989) finished fifth.

The only NL club to miss out on a Cy Young win are the Colorado Rockies. The closest the Rockies have come to winning the NL’s pitching award was in 2010, when Ubaldo Jimenez finished third in voting, behind Roy Halladay and Adam Wainwright.

The tables above extend back to 1956, when just one award was given to players in both leagues. It also includes wins in both leagues by the Houston Astros and Milwaukee Brewers, who respectively moved to their current leagues in 2013 and 1998, as well as the lone win for the Montreal Expos in 1997 before their relocation to Washington, DC.
