The Aroldis Chapman era in Cincinnati will officially begin when he pitches in Monday's game against the Kansas City Royals. His arrival to the Reds was shocking to not only Reds fans, but to the entire league. The small market Cincinnati ball club managed to sign Chapman, out-bidding all other suitors, with a $30.25 million dollar contract. The move not only expresses owner Bob Castellini and GM Walt Jocketty's plans for the future, but it shows the demand for winning now. With some of the most intriguing and talented young prospects in the league residing in the Reds' up-and-coming rotation, the Reds should be anticipated contenders this year and for many more to come.
