Despite his success with the team, including being third on their all-time saves list and making three All-Star appearances, Chapman felt deeply disrespected by the front office, particularly GM Brian Cashman and possibly owner Hal Steinbrenner. He revealed his strong feelings in a recent podcast interview, stating he'd retire if traded back to the Yankees. Chapman's story serves as a reminder of the lasting impact of behind-the-scenes events in baseball.
