Scouting Report
The Twins were thinking big — literally and figuratively — when they used their second-round pick, 54th overall, to select Young in last year's draft. Turning 19 in a few days, the former prep star is already a massive specimen at 6-foot-6 and 225 lbs. His throwing and swinging strength are immense, casting the potential for a star slugger at third base or an outfield corner. (There's no way he's sticking at shortstop, even if it's technically his current position.)
The question with Young is simple: Will he make enough contact to produce? That was the universal knock on him entering the draft. Baseball America describes his swing as "long, with a pronounced hitch," and such issues are not always easily solved for a guy his size. Young struck out nine times in 22 plate appearances during a brief debut at Low-A Fort Myers last year, but it says something about the team's belief in him that they sent him there directly. He will be a fun one to follow this year.
