MLB trade deadline chip Aroldis Chapman: Would be 'awesome' to return to Cincinnati Reds

KANSAS CITY — Aroldis Chapman might be the only one in baseball who isn’t certain the Kansas City Royals are going to trade him this summer.

“I see there’s a lot people in the media and social media talking about it,” he said. “But I don’t know what’s going to happen in a couple weeks or months.”

The former Cincinnati Reds closer does seem sure of one thing, though:

If the upstart Reds want to bring him back to Cincinnati at the Aug. 1 trade deadline and create one of the most powerful back-end bullpen tandems in the game, he’s all in.
