View Draft Report

The Gators have enviable depth to their pitching staff and Young's versatility helps to enable coach Kevin O'Sullivan to mix and match at the back end of games. Young has worked as a starter at times in his career, but has primarily been a reliever this season. His fastball gets up to 91 mph and he pairs it effectively with an average slider. Young likely will stay in the bullpen as a professional and could advance quickly if he can tighten up his sometimes erratic command.
