Fantasy Impact:

Passan notes that the Pirates are receiving a "large package of prospects" in return. The headliner is reportedly 19-year-old center fielder Hudson Head. Musgrove was fantastic over his final four starts of 2020, posting a 34:5 K:BB ratio in 22 innings. An annual breakout candidate, Musgrove's move to San Diego will only heighten his appeal.
