Show Notes
Aroldis Chapmans resurgence with the Boston Red Sox has been nothing short of remarkable. After a successful stint with the Pittsburgh Pirates, he secured the closer role in spring training, posting a stellar 1.17 ERA and 32 saves in 2025. This offseason, the Red Sox re-signed him, and hes started 2026 on a high note, with three scoreless outings and two saves. His recent save against the Padres pushed him past Jonathan Papelbon for 11th on the all-time saves list. Fans are thrilled with his performance, especially after letting Kenley Jansen go. Chapmans dominance has solidified the bullpen, and hes on pace to surpass Dennis Eckersley and reach the 300-save milestone, potentially joining an elite club of pitchers with 34 or more saves in a season.
