Fantasy Impact:

There's another report that none of the Dodgers' top prospects, Julio Urias, Corey Seager or Jose De Leon, are heading to Cincinnati. Chapman has been one of the league's best closers for several years. As such, he's a top fantasy closer. The move to LA should only help his totals. He'll transition to a team with a better competitive outlook for 2016, potentially providing more save opportunities. He also moves to a better park for pitchers.
