Gardenhire likes to play matchups and he felt other players, primarily Kubel, were a better option. Young went 3-4 last night and swung at every first pitch. To me, he doesn't look all that comfortable out there in left field, which also probably enters Gardenhire's thinking.
As for the SBs, I think he has one in the past month. His first eight came early on and there's been a drought since then. I dropped him recently to make way for a better outfield option.
