Red Sox shut down Aroldis Chapman trade rumors amid winning streak

The Boston Red Sox have dismissed trade rumors involving pitcher Aroldis Chapman following a 15-game winning streak. A report emerged suggesting the Chicago White Sox might acquire Chapman, but Red Sox insider Chris Cotillo quickly refuted the speculation. The Red Sox are shifting from a selling approach to potentially being buyers as they look to capitalize on their recent success. With the team performing well, there appears to be less incentive to trade Chapman at this time.
