Some of you might remember me from CBS and know that Young has been on my wish list for the Cubs the last two years to help teach the young guys about the fundamentals of hitting.
Now, Young is about to be a free agent, and I still want him as our opening day 3rd baseman.
However, his batting average with the Phillies has sagged as the season has progressed, leading many to believe this could be the end of the end for him. He still has walked at a decent rate this year, and while his 3.85 SLG isn't anything to write home about, but it's still better than anyone currently in our infield sans Rizzo. And let's face it, Mike Olt is clearly not ready for the big leagues.
Thoughts?
