Aroldis Chapman Secures Red Sox Extension Through 2026 With 2027 Option

Chapman, 37, agreed to a $13.3M 2026 deal with a $13M vesting option for 2027, per Francys Romero. The veteran closer owns a 4-3 record, 1.04 ERA, 74 strikeouts, 0.673 WHIP and .363 OPS against over 52 innings, with no hits allowed since July 23. Breslow’s bullpen now underpins Boston’s second-place AL Wild Card push, locking ninth-inning stability.
