Chapman had the highest K% among free agents that pitched regularly last season, and had the second highest BB%. His ERA was half a run higher than Jansen's, his FIP was the same.
Chapman: 35 shutdowns, 11 meltdowns
Jansen: 32 sd, 7 md
Chapman led all free agents in being a piece of shit.

Doesn't really make sense after they signed Wilson either.
They could have spent money and gotten the best available option (Scott). Instead, they get Chapman for cheaper and hope they can fix his walk issues lol.
My second thought was "but this is baseball".
Ugh.
