Twins/Young Avoid Arbitration

According to a status update on Delmon Young’s Facebook page, he and the Twins reached an agreement tonight to avoid arbitration. Details are unknown at this time. Young had asked for $6.25 million, and the Twins countered with an offer of $4.65 million. The midpoint is $5.45 million. No matter the number, he will receive a significant raise from the $2.6 million he made in 2010.

Young posted on his Facebook page, “Avoided Arbitration...Now looking for the spring training and defending the AL Central for a 3rd year in a row.”

I concur!

Any thoughts?
