Young is starting at first base and batting eight Friday versus the Guardians.
With Cody Bellinger back in center field, Young has now made two straight starts at first base and three straight overall. The 27-year-old has a home run and a triple in his first two contests with the big club in 2023 after posting a 1.030 OPS with 13 homers at Triple-A Iowa. The lefty-swinging Young could be the preferred option at first base versus righties for the time being, with Trey Mancini playing there against southpaws.
