Yankees acquire Chapman from Reds for prospects

Aroldis Chapman is joining the New York Yankees.

The fireballer was acquired from the Cincinnati Reds on Monday in exchange for four prospects, the team announced.

Right-handed pitchers Caleb Cotham and Rookie Davis and infielders Eric Jagielo and former Cal Bear Tony Renda were sent to Cincinnati in exchange.

After reportedly being delt to the Dodgers in early December, the deal fell apart due to a domestic violence incident in October.

Chapman is currently under investigation by the league and could face a lengthy suspension.
