Chris Young Fantasy Stats

The Texas Rangers hired Chris Young as executive vice president and general manager on Friday, and he'll work under president of baseball operations Jon Daniels, who has been the team's GM since 2005. The 6-foot-10 Young pitched 13 seasons in the majors and has been the senior vice president in charge of on-field operations and the umpires with MLB since May of 2018. Young lives in Dallas with his wife and three children. The right-hander won a career high-tying 12 games for the Rangers in 2005 but was part of a six-player trade with the Padres. He spent five years in San Diego and was an All-Star in 2007. He also pitched with the Mets, Mariners and Royals, helping KC win the World Series in 2015. Young went 79-67 with a 3.95 ERA in 271 career appearances (221 starts).

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young (hips) has been diagnosed with labral tears in both of his hips and will be out for the rest of the season. He had surgery on his right hip on Friday and will undergo surgery on the left hip at a later date. Young wasn't fantasy relevant to begin with in 2018, but this is a tough break for the 34-year-old. He was hitting only .168/.252/.363 with six home runs and 13 RBI in 56 games for the Halos as a part-time player.

Updating an earlier report, Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young was placed on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain. Jabari Blash has been recalled to take his place. Young was removed from Tuesday's game in the first inning after falling awkwardly while chasing a fly ball. Young is hitting .168 on the season, and Blash will likely be a bench bat with little fantasy upside.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young is expected to hit the disabled list with a hamstring injury. He was removed from Tuesday's game in the first inning after falling awkwardly while chasing a fly ball. Manager Mike Scioscia said Young is expected to miss a lot of time, so a DL stint seems like a formality. Jabari Blash was removed early from a game at Triple-A Salt Lake, so expect him to take Young's spot on the active roster. Young was hitting .168 on the season, and Blash will likely be a bench bat with little fantasy upside.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young was removed from Tuesday's game with a hamstring injury. There is no word on the severity yet or if he will require a stint on the disabled list. Young has been heating up as of late, although he is hitting just .179 on the year with five home runs and two stolen bases. If Young does miss some time, expect Jabari Blash to be recalled to take his place.

Los Angeles Angels right fielder Chris Young was a double short of the cycle on Wednesday, going 3-for-4 with three runs and an RBI. The 34-year-old is only hitting .183 on the year and has played sparingly, even with Kole Calhoun (oblique) on the disabled list. With Calhoun set to return soon, expect Young to continue to be a part-time player with limited fantasy upside.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young will get the start Sunday with Michael Hermosillo receiving a day off. Young will hit ninth in the lineup and is having a dreadful year against right-handed pitchers, which means he has no appeal as a DFS play Sunday. Young, has a .150 batting average and just one home run in 47 plate appearances against righties this season. Young has generally struggled more in his career against right-handed pitchers, with a career .226 batting average.

San Diego Padres pitcher Chris Young requested and was granted his release by the Padres after it was unlikely he was going to make the team due to 40-man roster issues. The Padres had been looking at Young as fitting into a long-relief role on the team after he posted a 7.53 ERA and 1.46 WHIP over 14 1/3 innings this spring. Young could end up with a deal somewhere else this season, and his 9.4 K/9 could potentially make him an interesting waiver wire pickup, but at this point he will be 39 this year and he has not looked the same since his 2013 thoracic outlet surgery. There's really no reason he should be owned at all in any format.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Chris Young (calf) saw some action in an intrasquad scrimmage on Tuesday. He went 2-for-8 with two doubles. Young had not seen game action in a while, as he was recovering from a calf strain. The 34-year-old is expected to serve as LA's fourth outfielder next season and will not hold fantasy relevance unless an injury forces him into regular duty.

Two San Diego Padres pitchers contending for starting gigs are moving in opposite directions. Starting Sunday, pitcher Luis Perdomo scuffled, allowing five earned runs and a 3.00 WHIP in three innings against the San Francisco Giants. Coming in relief, pitcher Chris Young fired four innings of shutout ball, retiring five via strikeout. Perdomo's edge heading into spring training has likely vanished while Young, a non-roster invite, has a compelling case to make the team as a starter or long reliever. Manager Andy Green remains constructive on Perdomo, but his 10.50 ERA in six spring innings has not impressed. In 11 innings, Young has registered a 2.45 ERA and 0.82 WHIP. The competition should remain heated until the end, with Perdomo and Young two of six pitchers fighting for the final two rotation slots.
