Sources told Jeff Passan on Tuesday that the Toronto Blue Jays and third baseman Matt Chapman are in agreement on a two-year, $25 million contract extension.

Chapman is set to hit free agency following the 2023 season, so this deal with the Blue Jays buys out his final two years of arbitration.

According to sources, he didn't give up any free-agent years and just got cost certainty for the next five years, regardless of how he performs.

Toronto acquired Chapman in a trade with Oakland on March 16, sending four minor league prospects to the A's for the three-time Gold Glove winner.

Chapman spent his first five seasons with Oakland and had a.243 career batting average. He was 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217
