Where Does Chris Young fit in the Mets Outfield?

When the Mets signed Chris Young as a free agent, it was thought he was going to be a starting outfielder. However, after signing Curtis Granderson and resigning Eric Young Jr, his role in the outfield has come into question. Young has been known hitting for power and stealing bases. He hit 32 home runs in 2007 and had 27 stolen bases.  In 2010, he hit 27 homers and had 28 stolen bases. In 2011, he hit 20 homers and stole 22 bases. Despite those very solid numbers, his biggest weaknesses have been his high strikeout totals and hitting for a very low average. His highest average in a season when he had at least 300 at-bats was only .257. Young has had four seasons of 100 strikeouts or more. Even though Young has shown that he has speed and power, I'm concerned that his tendency to strike out frequently and not hit for a high average will affect him becoming a starting outfield. I think that Chris Young will start the season as a fourth outfielder and have the outfield consist of Eric Young Jr , Juan Lagares, and Curtis Granderson. Young has to cut down on his strikeouts and improve his average in order to have a chance to play every day.
