"Chapman's 2023 was a bounceback from his 2022 with the New York Yankees. 2022 stands alone as his only year worth negative bWAR (-0.2). After six years in New York - plus the first half of 2016 - Chapman was a free agent coming off a year with career highs in ERA (4.46) & FIP (4.57), his worst K:BB ratio (1.57) , fewer strikeouts (10.7/9), more walks (6.9)."
"Chapman has been simply brilliant. Literally unhittable. That's a word thrown around a lot. But he hasn't give up a hit since July 23rd. That's 11.2 innings over 14 appearances. He's sitting on a 1.04 ERA. 3: the number of times he struck out the side. 4: pitcher wins - the Sox have come back after using their closer. 6: the number of time he recorded strikeouts for all three outs in an inning."
Aroldis Chapman rebounded after a poor 2022 to deliver a stronger 2023 and earned a low-risk signing from the Kansas City Royals. The Texas Rangers acquired him in a trade for Cole Ragans, and he finished fourth in the AL Cy Young race in 2024. The Pittsburgh Pirates expressed interest but did not sign him. In 2025 Chapman has been virtually unhittable, not allowing a hit since July 23 across 11.2 innings and 14 appearances. He owns a 1.04 ERA, 26 saves in 28 opportunities, 74 strikeouts in 52 innings, and a 102.4 mph top pitch.
