Rumor: Phils Looking At Delmon Young

UPDATE (5:42 p.m.): La Velle Neal writes the Twins like Jason Donald:

I’ve talked to two baseball officials who know Donald. One described him as a true baseball player with great instincts. The other thought he needed to at least begin the year at Class AAA. Both felt Donald might wind up at third.

Paul Hagen is reporting the Phillies are interested in Twins outfielder Delmon Young.

Hagen throws in a Young for Jason Donald scenario, with the Phils adding a pitching chip or two. Young, 23, hit .290 with 10 HR and 69 RBI last season for Minnesota. Of course, Young has always been a rough player to manage.
