There appears to be no love lost between the New York Yankees and former closer Aroldis Chapman. Chapman recently appeared on a podcast and said, "If I were told that I was being traded to New York, I’d pack my things and go home. I’ll retire right on the spot if that happens." Chapman went on to say, "I knew that they just wanted to find a way to get rid of me, but they didn’t know how."
Chapman last pitched for the Yankees back in 2022. Some fans will remember that the flamethrower was left off the Yankees postseason roster that year after missing a mandatory workout.
