Sean Marshall is making 6.5 million this season and it is the last year of his contract. They could afford to keep Chapman if they want, but top closers are making 13 million a year. Do you spend that much on a team in 4th place? A guy like Huston Street is only making 7 million. Trade Chapman for a King's ransom and sign a cheaper closer. You are not going to seriously compete for a couple years.
