Delmon Damarcus Young, (born September 14, 1985 in Montgomery, Alabama), the younger brother of Dmitri Young, is an outfielder on the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and is arguably the top hitting prospect in baseball as of the end of the 2005 minor-league baseball season. In 84 games with Double-A Montgomery, Young hit .336 with 20 home runs, 71 runs batted in and an OPS of .986 in 2005. Young was promoted to Class AAA Durham on July 15, 2005, where he batted .285 with six home runs and 28 RBI in 52 games. The Devil Rays did not call him up in September because they did not want to start his major-league service time with a partial season, but Devil Rays management has made it clear that he will compete for a major-league job during spring training in 2006.
