Newsbreakers

September 29, 2009

Michael Young was productive in tonight's 11-0 loss at the Angels, as he went 2-for-3 with a single and a double.

Our View:

His double was the Rangers' only extra base hit in the game. This was an encouraging outing for Young, as he has been dealing with a hamstring injury.

September 28, 2009

Updating a previous report, MLB.com is reporting that Michael Young will play third base in his return to the starting lineup on Monday. Young has been dealing with a hamstring injury that has limited him to only one at-bat this month.

Our View:

Young wants to get some at-bats to finish the season on a positive note, but his team looks done in the playoff race. His numbers were excellent before the injury, and he will go into next season as a top fantasy option yet again.

September 27, 2009

Michael Young (hamstring) will rejoin the Rangers' starting lineup on Monday, according to the Dallas Morning News.

Our View:

Young has just one at-bat since September 1. For the season, he is hitting .322 with 22 home runs and 67 RBI in 130 games.

September 20, 2009

Michael Young "is not expected back anytime soon" after aggravating his strained left hamstring last Tuesday, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

If you were holding out hope that he could help you during your fantasy playoffs, it's time to cut your losses and not carry his deadweight on your roster. Even if he does return this season, he might not be a meaningful contributor.

September 18, 2009

Michael Young is out of Friday's lineup against the Angels while still recovering from a pulled left hamstring, according to the Star-Telegram.

Our View:

Young started as the DH on Tuesday, but exited after one at-bat due to fatique in his ailing hamstring. Esteban German will cover the hot corner in his place tonight.
