Any Delmon Young out there?

[dietdew]

Hi, I'm a new member who collects Delmon Young. I'd love to see what other Delmon items are floating around here. Here is some of what is in my collection:

Wecome to the forum. Very nice Young collection!! I'm sure w/ Delmon being in Detroit you can add to that w/ the authentics department the Tigers have. I believe my only Delmon item is a home run ball that he hit in the ALCS last season.

I really love seeing player collections particularly in baseball since that's my collecting focal, and only point. I don't know how long you have been collecting Delmon's gear, but by the looks of it you really are off to a nice start.

I'm sure you've already seen this but there is a Young ALCS jersey up for auction right now.

I collected DY items from his Rays and Twins days while he was here with the Twins. Here is a pic of a few of the items I picked up.

Is that the white Saturday jersey the twins wore in the last year in the Dome? I remember going to a game and seeing those uniforms and wondering why the Twins had not applied the front numbers to Delmon's.

My brother and I started our collection when Delmon came over from the Rays though he had been a fan for years before. We have found the Tigers auctions to be much easier to keep track of than calling all the pro shops like we had to do with the Twins. We are kind of torn between bidding on the ALCS jersey and the opening day one coming up.

After a day like today (2 run HR, circus act miss in left), I can see why there is so much love/hate for Delmon out there.

I got this in the mail from the Twins Pro Shop today. I was told it was from last year, but it's the 2010 banner.

Sold this last year. Shaving cream pie to the head.

Check the Collector to Collector section. Someone is selling a nice Delmon bat for a very reasonable price.

Delmon Young X-Bat "Cool Larry" model...

Re: Any Delmon Young out there?

That's a nice bat; I've seen a couple of those for sale before. I'm not much of a bat guy myself. I have the one Delmon and a Benny Agbayani that collects dust in the closet.

Re: Any Delmon Young out there?

Not a game item of any sort, but I did add this recently to my collection:

I believe it is the first officially released Tigers figurine of Delmon though I did repurpose a Twins bobblehead last fall.


I have my May budget pretty much blown on a couple of items I hope to be posting here and in the Tigers thread soon, but if anyone is looking to dump the arch-villain Delmon for pennies on the dollar I guess I'd have to take a look. In all seriousness, I would like to see more of what is out there in collections. I'd really love to see his pre-Twins stuff if anyone has that stashed away.

I've got a Dmitri Young bat he was using during his stint in the Arizona Fall League a few years back.
