The Diamondbacks and center fielder Chris Young appear to be closing in on a long-term contract, and an announcement on the deal could come sometime early this week. Details of the agreement are not known but it is believed to be close to, but short of, the six-year, $30 million deal the Rockies gave shortstop Troy Tulowitzki earlier this year.

He's lucky he can hit the long ball. A center fielder that bats sub-.250 really shouldn't get a contract like that. At least not until after another season to prove that he can hit for a respectable average.

Isn't it ironic a bosox fan calls something a waste of money?
