Yankees Acquire Aroldis Chapman From Reds

The MLB off-season can not be complete without the New York Yankees making a splash for some big time player. On Monday, The New York Yankees welcomed fire throwing left-hander Aroldis Chapman to their bullpen to serve as their closing pitcher. The Yankees acquired him in a trade with the Cincinnati Reds for four minor league prospects. The Reds received two right-handers: Caleb Cotham and Rookie Davis, and two infielders: Eric Jagielo and Tony Renda.

"We felt this was an opportunity for us to add a big arm to our bullpen," said Yankees general manager Brian Cashman who already has two other hard throwing arms in Dellin Betances and lefty Andrew Miller.

Chapman holds the record for the hardest fastball ever thrown in the major leagues at 105.1 MPH. Betances can hit 100 MPH and Miller can also reach up to 98-100 MPH.

If there is one thing to expect from the 2016 New York Yankees, is that their bullpen will be stellar and is arguably the best bullpen in the major leagues.
