The Boston Red Sox have reached an agreement with 36-year-old free-agent left-handed reliever Aroldis Chapman on a one-year, $10.75 million contract, pending a physical. Chapman, known for his high strikeout rates with a 14.30 K/9, had a 3.79 ERA in 61.2 innings with the Pittsburgh Pirates last season. With 335 career saves, Chapman's addition aims to bolster the Red Sox bullpen with left-handed pitching.
