It helps that the other possible contenders could also be splitting the vote because of their teammates. Ellsbury's great year will take potential votes away from A-Gon and Granderson's stats are too similar to Tex's stats so a split is possible in votes.
Verlander has been amazing this year that while most pitchers probably have 1/4 - 1/3 of their starts be no decisions, just 4 of his games (12%) are no decisions this year so he gets a result almost every time.
