2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Cubs removed Young from their 40-man roster last offseason, but he found his way back to the majors amidst a big year at Triple-A Iowa which saw him slash .310/.417/.577 with 21 home runs over 376 plate appearances. He cracked a couple more homers with the big club but was jettisoned from the 40-man roster again this winter and was scooped up on waivers by the rival Cardinals. Young can play the corner infield and outfield spots and has decent speed, although he's never been much of a base stealer. The 28-year-old took big steps forward with his power and walk rate in 2023, but given his age and the fact that he was in his third stint at Triple-A, it's fair to be dubious. Read Past Outlooks
Headed to Korea
The Cardinals have transferred Young to the Doosan Bears of the Korea Baseball Organization in exchange for cash considerations.
ANALYSIS

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Young made his MLB debut in 2022 as a 27-year-old. He played in just six games, registering a .732 OPS across 19 at-bats. More telling was Young's stat line at the Triple-A level. In 109 contests for the Iowa Cubs, he posted a .724 OPS and blasted 17 home runs, which represented a new career best at any level. Young also displayed good versatility in the minors, as he split his time between first base, third base and the outfield. The ability to play multiple positions gives Young an outside shot to earn a bench role with Chicago to begin the 2023 season, though he's more likely to start with Iowa once again. At this point in his career, Young looks like the classic organizational depth player. He can fill out a bench in the majors if a need arises, but he's probably best suited for Triple-A. That doesn't leave Young with a ton of fantasy value at this point.
