Aroldis Chapman slipped and fell at his house on Saturday, which resulted in a cracked tooth and a split lip. (Anne Rogers on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

While his mouth remained quite swollen Monday, the expectation is that he will throw a bullpen session Tuesday and hopefully appear in a Cactus League game soon. Chapman is on a one-year deal with the Royals, though whether he will compete against Scott Barlow for the closer's role remains to be seen.
