Scouting Report

2024

After two years at the junior college level with Howard College in Texas, Young moved on to Louisiana-Lafayette. He both started and relieved for the Ragin’ Cajuns in 2019 and was off to a very good start in his senior season in 2020 before the pandemic shut things down. He signed with the Orioles as a non-drafted free agent following that truncated Draft and had a solid first full season across two levels of A ball during his pro debut in 2021. He made three starts in Double-A in 2022 before elbow trouble that required surgery shelved him and he didn’t return until July 2023. With a clean bill of health this season, Young moved quickly from Double-A to Triple-A and is knocking on the big league door.

A 6-foot-6 right-hander, Young is more about a complete repertoire -- with the chance to have a legitimate four-pitch mix -- than he is about wow stuff. His fastball in 2024 sat around 92-93 mph, topping out at 96, an effective pitch with some armside run. His best secondary offering is his above-average mid-70s curve, thrown with high spin and good depth, and he also has a firmer, low-80s slider. He kills spin with his changeup, a fading offspeed offering that is a good option for left-handed hitters.

After throwing a ton of strikes in Double-A in 2024, Young’s walk rate ticked up again with his move to Triple-A. He looks like he should be a dependable enough strike-thrower to stick in a rotation. While his ceiling is somewhat limited because of that lack of a true out pitch, he could latch on as a No. 5 starter type if he continues to throw well.
