Young contract in works
Right-handed pitcher Chris Young is close to signing a multi-year contract with Texas. Although he only made his major league debut in August, going 3-2 with a 4.71 ERA, the Rangers want to keep him from playing in the NBA.
The 6-foot-10 Young played both baseball and basketball at Princeton, and the Sacramento Kings are interested in him as their backup center. Young was a freshman All-America in basketball at Princeton and the Ivy League Rookie of the Year but gave up basketball when the Pittsburgh Pirates drafted him in the third round after his sophomore season.
