21-Year-Old ShortstopSS
Seattle Mariners AA
2025 Fantasy Outlook
The pitcher-friendly home park at Arkansas can be blamed somewhat for Young's career-worst .119 ISO, but there's no denying he's a hit-over-power prospect. He slashed .271/.369/.390 with nine home runs and 23 steals in 124 games. Young, the fourth-youngest qualified hitter at Double-A in 2024, could be passable at shortstop or quite good at second base for the Mariners as early as this summer. He has a very advanced knowledge of the strike zone and logged an impressive 81.4 percent contact rate, but he doesn't hit the ball hard very often (22.0 percent hard-hit rate) and projects to offer modest power, especially if he calls T-Mobile Park home. If everything works out, the lefty-hitting Young could produce similarly to guys like Brice Turang and Bryson Stott in a couple years. Read Past Outlooks
