Giants are taking a chance that they will see the Carlos Carrasco of 2020 when he was the 19th ranked SP. If he can regain some of that magic, he will certainly help the Giants down the stretch. Losing Hjelle and Taylor is the cost of this gamble, but as prospects go, whether they actually make an impact on their MLB teams is filled with uncertainty. Tyler Beede is a case in point, great potential, and flashes of brilliance, but never really fulfilling his expected potential. Hopefully, Carrasco gives the Giants enough of a positive return to offset the loss of those prospects.
Brewers to confirm.
