Aroldis Chapman signs 30MM contract with NLC club

[FloydtheBarber]

Although I know that was in jest, as it wasn't a realistic possibility anyways, nope.

Eh, it was worth a shot. Ok, yeah, soo that basically means it is 100% the Reds

I hope this means the Mariners and Reds are in deep discussion for Harang

Otherwise, I'll be surprised to see the Reds give more money out.

[YEAH DAAAAWG]

1:52pm: Passan confirms the deal, via Twitter.

1:34pm: Jeff Blair from the Toronto Globe and Mail tweets that he's hearing that Chapman signing with the Reds at five years and $30MM is a done deal.

Cincy.

Any reason to believe that? I'm curious because I haven't heard anything about Harang - Mariners, I just knew that they were shopping him.

No rumors between them yet, but Z has said he wants another SP. Could be him or any number of guys, but considering the Reds would likely eat some of the payroll it makes the most sense to me. Get him out of that bandbox and in to Safeco.

for a pitcher it is

I wouldn't be surprised if the Mets get Harang or Arroyo in a trade

[haveacigar]

Damn big market teams buying up all the talent. No way the little guys can compete.

You can have Arroyo. Nobody else should want him.

[metsguy234]

We desperately need pitching, so we'll take him.

Yeah! We need a salary cap to stop all this crazy Reds spending.

Tell Chuck Norris....i mean....Nick Punto that.

No. I'm tired of the Mariners. They can't just make 50 trades every offseason.
