Chris Young signed a contract extension through the 2013 season today.

The exact numbers have not been released yet, but according to an mlb.com article, the contract is reported to be similar to that that Troy Tulowitzki signed with the Rockies this offseason which was a six-year deal worth in the area of $30 million.

Young is coming off a season in which he hit 32 homers and stole 27 bases. He was acquired from the Chicago White Sox after the 2005 season.
