New Boston Red Sox ace Chris Sale is the favorite to win the American League Cy Young, per Bovada.lv.

Sale -- who has finished in the top five of the Cy Young voting each of the past four years and the top six each of the past five years -- went 17-10 with a 3.34 ERA in 32 starts for the White Sox last year. Bovada has him at 7-to-2 odds to win the award.

David Price was the favorite to win the 2016 AL Cy Young when Bovada released its odds last March 11. But Price experienced a disappointing first season with Boston after signing for seven years, $217 million. He went 17-9 with a 3.99 ERA in 35 starts. His ERA was well above his 3.21 career mark. He led the league in innings pitched (230) but also allowed a league-hitting 227 hits.

Bovada has Price at 16-to-1 odds. Price (elbow) likely will begin the regular season on the DL.

Red Sox righty Rick Porcello -- who won the 2016 AL Cy Young -- is at 33-to-1 odds.
