Chapman pitched the final two games in New York over the weekend, saving both games, then went for a third straight day in the 10th inning of Monday’s loss to the Rays. He didn’t pitch Tuesday (Weissert got the save in that one) but closed out Wednesday’s win, then threw 14 pitches Friday. That was likely his limit entering Saturday.

According to Newsweek's Andrew Wright, Red Sox closer Aroldis Chapman is considered a trade candidate for the New York Mets, who are looking to address their own bullpen issues.

Seven-time All-Star Aroldis Chapman would be the prize of the relief pitching market if he were available. He's on a one-year, $10.75 million contract with the Boston Red Sox, who were 36-36 entering play on Sunday.
