Veteran reliever Aroldis Chapman is signing with the Boston Red Sox.
While the team didn’t confirm the signing on Tuesday, multiple sources told ESPN that Chapman was headed to Boston on a one-year, $10.75 million deal, pending a physical.
The left-hander made his intentions known, posting a photo of himself wearing a Red Sox cap and captioned, “Let’s go!”
Chapman, 36, made his MLB debut in 2010 as a 22-year-old flamethrower, with a pitch reaching 105.8 mph as a rookie with the Reds. He spent six season in Cincinnati before pitching with the Chicago Cubs (2016), New York Yankees (2016-22), Kansas City Royals (2023), Texas Rangers (2023) and Pittsburgh Pirates (2024).
Winner of the 2019 AL Rivera Reliever Award and a seven-time All-Star, Chapman won World Series with the Yankees in 2016 and the Rangers.
In his sole season with Pittsburgh, Chapman posted a 5-5 record, 3.79 ERA, 14 saves and 98 strikeouts in 61 2/3 innings in 68 appearances.
For his career, Chapman is 55-45 with a 2.63 ERA in 796 games. He has 335 saves.
