Eric Young (OF, NYM) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues for Speed

ANALYSIS: Eric Young is once again getting consistent at bats in the Mets lineup, so if you got the need for speed, you should pay close attention to what EYJ is doing.  Young's steals come in spurts, so while he only has 1 over his past 8 games, he has 3 in the 2 games before that.  Young is most definitely not an every day player, even in 12 team 5 OF leagues.  He's a guy you want to keep on your bench and slot in when he's facing right handed pitchers because he can't hit lefties and he barely starts against them.   If Young plays every day from here on out, he would rack up 30-35 SB. Don't expect totals that high, but you'll be rewarded if you deploy him strategically.
