Update: Red Sox, Aroldis Chapman Agree to a Deal

I hope they don't think Chapman and hendriks are the 9th inning/8th inning guys.

Slaten & Whitlock are the 8th inning/set-up me.

Wilson or Bernardino the other lefty

Guerrero/Penrod/Kelly/Weissert/Fulmer fillers

Winckowski/Criswell/Fitts/ Priester/Dobbins the long men and spot starters.

I'm not even sure adding Hoffman, Estevez or Holmes would be nough.

Maybe a trade for Helsley would be the best idea.

Do we really need a domestic violence lefty, who last year also tied Jarren Duran for two-game vocabulary suspensions?

But just to get ready, I watched an entire youtube of game-tying or game-losing home runs given up by Chapman, including 7,516 on sliders after swings and misses at 100 mph heaters.

Good thing his new pitching coach prefers breaking balls.

And they signed him for one year? Are we really still going year to year, just trying to get through another season before we actually go for it? I thought, I mean I was told (by the president-derelict) we won't be just fighting for a wild card next year... but a division title!

At his age, it is a good thing to be just one year.

I'm hoping we sign a top RP'er to 3-4 years. Chapman and hendriks would be okay as set-up me. Slaten & Whitlock as 7th inning guys, and Wink as the long man.
