Chapman was traded to the Yankees on Monday, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.
The Yankees gave up four minor-league prospects to acquire Chapman from the Reds, nearly four weeks after the planned trade to the Dodgers was nixed due to the closer's domestic-violence allegations stemming from an incident in late October. Chapman now joins Andrew Miller and Dellin Betances to form a devastating power-arm bullpen, but Chapman's presence does make Miller more expendable. While sources indicate the Yankees are expecting to lose Chapman's services for some portion of the season due the alleged domestic-violence incident, it doesn't appear as if he will miss the entire season. Thus his role will likely be decided once MLB officially makes its decision on the alleged incident.
