Aroldis Chapman is signing a one-year contract with the Boston Red Sox according to ESPN insider Jeff Passan.

The one-year deal is worth $10.75 million.

Chapman spent the first six years of his career with the Reds. He also spent seven years with the Yankees and had stints with the Cubs, Royals and Rangers. He played for the Pirates last season.

The Reds traded Chapman to the Yankees on Dec. 28, 2015.

Left-handed reliever Aroldis Chapman and the Boston Red Sox are in agreement on a one-year, $10.75 million contract, pending physical, sources tell ESPN. Boston sought left-handed help for its bullpen and lands the 36-year-old Chapman. @ChrisCotillo said deal was progressing.
