    Young is far from his ceiling, but he is as intriguing as any raw, projectable arm in the class. Standing at 6-foot-10, Young has a wiry frame that has plenty of room to add strength. On the summer showcase circuit, Young's fastball sat in the mid-80s and he showed below-average offspeed stuff. This spring, his fastball showed significant improvement. He now sits in the upper 80s and has scraped 91. He's a long-term project at this point, but his exceptional size and promising improvement this spring make him an intriguing prospect to follow. He's signed with Hofstra.
