Milwaukee Brewers OFs Keon Broxton, Rymer Liriano, Kirk Nieuwenhuis and Eric Young Jr. are each options for the starting center field job heading into spring training.

Fantasy Tip: It's a big race to watch, and it could end up a platoon situation, too. Nieuwenhuis and Young have the most starting experience, but that doesn't necessarily mean they have a leg up at this juncture.

Free-agent OF Eric Young Jr. (Mets) has signed a minor-league contract with the Milwaukee Brewers. Young can make $1 million if he is brought to the parent club before spring training concludes or the regular season gets underway.

Fantasy Tip: Don't go out of your way to draft Young late in NL or mixed leagues, but keep an eye on how he does in spring training. If he can regain the 40-50 steal capability he had a few years ago, Young's fantasy value could rise.

New York Mets OF Eric Young Jr., who was recently acquired from the Atlanta Braves, may be called up when rosters expand on Sept. 1.

Fantasy Tip: Young steals bases, which is something the Mets haven't done a lot of as of late. Watch how much playing time Young earns if he is called up, as Young could be a low-cost FantasyScore flier who earns a few points on speed alone.

Atlanta Braves OF Cameron Maybin is not in the starting lineup Tuesday, May 12. OF Eric Young Jr. is starting in center field and hitting eighth in the batting order against Cincinnati Reds SP Anthony DeSclafani.

Fantasy Tip: Young ($2,200, 4.4% of cap) hasn't started a game since May 1, and he's hitting just .164 (11-for-67) with only five RBI and three stolen bases in limited action. He's quickly fallen out of favor in the outfield with the emergence of Kelly Johnson. At the bottom of Atlanta's order, Young shouldn't excite folks at FantasyScore.
