    I'd say they're pretty much exactly the same as any of the other CYA contenders

    Correct. Which increases parity and decreases each player’s odds of finishing in the top 3.

    Based on the Vegas odds above, that translates to Cam at 40% and Hunter at 12.5%. Your 5% is exactly correct on getting 2 picks based on these odds.

    Edit: My bad, that is if Hunter had to win the CY award. The odds are way higher with him only needing to finish top 3.

    Edit 2: Fanduel now has Cam tied with Jacob Wilson to win ROY.

    He is also underestimating the odds that he will slip out of the top 3 even if he does stay healthy.

    I was much more confident before last night's fiasco. LOL. I'm just going to keep my mouth shut and hope for the best.

    The Stros have more important things to worry about, and so should you

    I'm not worried about. I just want it to happen. I would love to see what Brown can do with 2 extra high level draft picks.

    Actually Chandler Rome, in his podcast said that is common misconception but incorrect - teams CAN get more than 1 pick if multiple players earn it.
