The recent signing of Jared Young by the New York Mets has sparked some interesting conversations in the fantasy baseball community. With a career batting average of just .210 and a modest power output, many are left wondering what this move really means for the Mets and for fantasy players alike.

Is this a sign that the Mets are preparing for a rebuilding phase, or do they see something in Young that could lead to a breakout? With Pete Alonso hitting free agency, could Young be a stopgap solution, or is he merely a depth piece?

Let’s dive into the implications of this signing. For those of you who have taken a chance on low-profile players in the past, what has been your experience? Have you ever found a diamond in the rough like Young, or do you think he’s destined to remain a bench warmer?

Additionally, what are your bold predictions for Young’s performance in 2024? Will he exceed his projected stats, or will he continue to struggle at the plate?

Let’s hear your thoughts! What does this signing mean for the Mets' infield depth, and how should fantasy managers approach players like Young in their drafts?
