Memories of Chris Young (Redux?)

I don't remember if we gave CY the Memories treatment last year when it appeared he was gone, but if we didn't, what about that oak of a man? Started the bin Laden is dead game and provided relevant postgame commentary as someone who was in the general area (at Princeton) on 9/11. Three hits in his first start, never much of a hitter again. Second go-round mostly game, never spectacular. Was Sandy's fallback plan. First-place favorite Nationals to benefit from his wisdom and experience...or have so many problems that they turn to Chris Young. Good luck, sort of.

I remember him from such games as how he sucked on MK's birthday last August - And that he was tall. Oh so tall. But mostly how he sucked to high heavens on August 8th.

Three hits in his first game and out for the year shortly thereafter. Looks like he falls in into the "organizational depth" file in DC

Contribute more to the team in four games in 2011 than in 20 games in 2012. The moral? It's good to take a low-cost flyer on an injured pitcher. Not so much on a twice-injured pitcher.

Tall. Threw four strong innings, then gave up six runs in the fifth in roughly every start, IIRC.
