DETROIT — The debate over MVP can wait. Justin Verlander wants to enjoy his American League Cy Young Award for a little while.

The result was inevitable once Verlander captured the league’s pitching Triple Crown. Tuesday was the coronation, making Verlander the Tigers’ first Cy Young winner since Guillermo Hernandez in 1984, and the first Tigers starting pitcher to win it since Denny McLain won back-to-back honors in 1968-69.
