The latest Chris Young MLB and fantasy baseball news

Tue, 23 Apr 2013 16:59:28 -0700

Washington Nationals SP Chris Young was roughed up in his first start for Triple-A Syracuse Tuesday, April 23, allowing six earned runs, nine hits and three walks with just two strikeouts over 4 1/3 innings. He also served up three homers.

Fantasy Tip: Young is trying to serve as the team's sixth starter, available in the event of doubleheaders, injuries, etc., which would keep Zach Duke in the bullpen. However, he is going to have to produce better results than this to get the attention of fantasy owners even in the deepest of NL-only leagues.

Washington Nationals manager Davey Johnson said SP Chris Young could become the team's sixth starter, which would keep SP Zach Duke in the bullpen. Young has an out clause in his minor league deal, and he's expected to throw a few bullpen sessions before heading to Triple-A Syracuse.

Fantasy Tip: Keep Young on your radar in deep NL-only leagues if the Nationals suffer an injury in their rotation.
