Time for the breakout year!

I certainly hope so, otherwise he'd better be on the way out.

Nice to see the Twins sign him and get him into camp in good shape and in a good mood. He has tremendous upside.

I will bet he is traded in a deal to get us a 3rd baseman and pen help. My guess is before spring training is over. Our outfield is loaded and are weak area's are pen and 3rd base. Any thoughts on this?

We'll see how things play out. The Twins certainly have a log-jam in their outfield and holes at 3B and the pen, but most teams are playing pretty conservative this year. Not sure if Young is the guy I'd move or not. Maybe a couple of young starters (the team's strength) or a catching prospect?

I'd hold onto Young if I were the Twins. I think this will be the year he puts it all together. He finished last season on a high note and I think that will carry over. He has to learn to take a walk every now wand then though. Joe Crede is still out there and and Reyes should be re-signed.
