The Giants acquired Young from the Reds on Sunday in exchange for outfielder Austin Slater and cash considerations, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
Young will return to the Giants organization after the team released him in November 2022. The left-hander appeared in three contests with the Reds earlier this season, tossing two scoreless innings while striking out two batters. Young has been lights out with Triple-A Louisville, producing a 1.19 ERA and 0.86 WHIP with 22 punchouts over 22.2 innings in 23 appearances. He'll report to Triple-A Sacramento for the time being but may not have to wait long for a call-up to San Francisco.
