Delmon Young is an outfielder for the Minnesota Twins. Despite having little major league experience, Young has already received a reputation around baseball for his strong and accurate throwing arm in the outfield. In terms of hitting ability, at 6'3", 205 pounds, he presents an intimidating and strong plate presence, and his hitting ability has often been compared to that of Albert Belle. He has a line drive swing with a slight uppercut that can produce long home runs and bullet line drives. Young was drafted first overall in the 2003 Major League Baseball Draft by Tampa Bay. As a 21-year-old in 2007, Young finished second in American League Rookie of the Year voting. On November 28, 2007, the Devil Rays traded Young to the Minnesota Twins. At the end of the 2008 season, Young had played in 152 games with the Twins, batting .290 with 10 home runs and 69 RBI.
