Rest-of-Season Projections
Signed a one-year, $925,000 contract with Atlanta in December of 2025.
Handling opener role Sunday
Young will serve as Atlanta's opener for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
The left-hander will be making his first MLB start but is expected to cover just an inning or two before giving way to right-hander JR Ritchie, who is slated to pitch in bulk relief. Since being reinstated July 3 following a season-opening stint on the injured list, Young has struck out three while allowing one earned run on two hits and one walk across 3.1 innings over four relief appearances.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could undergo Tommy John surgery
Young could consider undergoing Tommy John surgery due to his recent elbow injury, according to Tim Healey of Newsday.
Analysis
The Mets placed Young on the 15-day injured list April 30 with an elbow sprain, and the organization is considering all the options available for the reliever, including Tommy John. That would sideline Young for the rest of the 2025 season and possibly for the entire 2026 campaign as well. Young signed a minor-league deal with New York during the 2023 offseason.
