TAMPA — Aroldis Chapman is on the path to becoming a United States citizen.
“I am in the process right now,’’ Chapman told The Post on Friday morning, when asked if he had become a citizen.
That process began last year for the new Yankees closer, who will start the season following the completion of a 30-game suspension handed to him by MLB commissioner Rob Manfred this week for violating MLB’s and the Players Association’s joint domestic violence policy last October. Firing eight shots in his Davie, Fla., garage played into the suspension, which Chapman didn’t appeal.
