Why do you think it is Cy Young? It doesn't look remotely like him.

But I see potential

I could see it being a Young image...in fact I can't imagine it being anyone else. I don't know that is it a 1908 circa image, but may be a depiction of him from 1908. Some art guys...isn't this more or a 1920s-30s style?

There are plenty of large, insignificant paintings out there. Why do you think this is a prominent painting? Or that it's been somewhere prominent? It looks poorly done to me.

I think it's kinda' "folksy" in an amateurish way.
