Originally a second baseman, the versatile Young was a 5-time All-Star at shortstop, once at third base, and once as a combination designated hitter and utility infielder. He was the 2005 American League batting champion.

Young played baseball in high school at Bishop Amat Memorial High School and in college at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UC-Santa Barbara). He was originally drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in 1994 but elected to return to college and was eventually drafted in 1997 by the Toronto Blue Jays. After spending several seasons in the minor leagues with the Blue Jays, Young was traded to the Rangers where he spent over a decade. While with the Rangers, he set several club records in offensive statistic categories including runs scored and total bases. In 2016, Young was inducted into the Texas Rangers Hall of Fame.
