After seeing rookie Paul Skenes disrupt what was seemingly a two-person race, the NL Cy Young Award race now has two more newcomers that have seen their odds drastically drop from 100-to-1 odds.

Hunter Greene of the Cincinnati Reds (+1300) and Dylan Cease of the San Diego Padres (+1600) have entered the discussion, following impressive starts over the last couple months.

Cease threw a no-hitter and has allowed just one run over his last four starts. He also leads the NL in strikeouts and ranks 13th in ERA.

Meanwhile, Greene has allowed two runs over his last six starts. He ranks third in ERA (2.83) and fourth with 149 strikeouts.

Chris Sale of the Atlanta Braves remains the +110 betting favorite. Zack Wheeler (+220) of the Philadelphia Phillies and Skenes (+240) are next.
