Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
After failing to secure a starting role in summer camp, Young began the season in the Diamondbacks' bullpen. The lefty was pitching well early on, allowing just three earned runs in his first nine innings of 2020, and eventually the team decided to give Young another look as a starter with the likes of Madison Bumgarner, Robbie Ray and Luke Weaver failing to get the job done in the rotation. Young was not terrible as a starter outside of a six-run blowup against the Angels on Sept. 17. His swinging-strike and chase rates portend a better K%, but to date the strikeouts have yet to manifest at the big-league level. Righties teed off on Young last season, and until he shows more of a strikeout punch, the risk will outweigh the reward in the vast majority of matchups.
