Aroldis Chapman's Tumultuous Career Continues with Red Sox Extension

Aroldis Chapman, known for his record-setting fastball, had a tumultuous career with the Yankees, including a domestic violence suspension and a walk-off homer surrendered in the 2019 ALCS. After an acrimonious exit from New York in 2022, he won a second World Series with the 2023 Rangers. Chapman posted a statistically career-best season at age 37 with the Boston Red Sox in 2025, leading to an extension through 2027, provided he throws at least 40 innings this year. His legacy remains complex despite impressive stats.
