Michael Young Has Reached Out To Red Sox

Coming To Fenway?
Hall Of Fame baseball writer Peter Gammons has Tweeted that Michael Young has reached out to the Red Sox this off season. According to Gammons, the 37-year old free agent has also put out feelers to the Baltimore Orioles. Young would actually be an interesting fit for both teams in 2014. He could serve as a back-up third baseman to Will Middlebrooks and also fill-in at first and DH from time to time. Last year, Young hit a combined .279 between Philadelphia and the Dodgers—with a .335 OBP. The seven-time All-Star would also fit the "character" brand the Red Sox are trying to maintain.
