Chapman impressed with Sox
Young Cuban hurler Aroldis Chapman was reportedly very impressed with his visit with the Red Sox on Wednesday, according to the Boston Globe. Chapman's agent acknowledged that while Chapman enjoyed himself, he still has at least 10 teams interested in meeting.
Our View: The Sox may have the inside track on Chapman for two very important reasons. First, they have the money. Second, they signed his former teammate, shortstop Jose Iglesias, to an $8.5 MM deal this summer. Look for the Red Sox to be right there at the end of this thing.

Tigers interested in Chapman
The Detroit Tigers have throw their hats in the ring for the services of Cuban pitcher Aroldis Chapman, according to SI.com. The Tigers have contacted Chapman's people about setting up a meeting later this week or early next week.
Our View: Everyone wants a piece of Chapman, but it looks like there will only be a few teams with deep enough pockets to get him signed. The Tigers obviously feel like they can get it done, but they are still behind teams like the Yankees and Red Sox in the Chapman sweepstakes.

Mets not pursuing Chapman
MetsBlog.com is reporting that the team met with free agent pitcher Aroldis Chapman on Friday. It was not clear if the two sides discussed financial demands, but the Mets are not expected to pursue the young Cuban.
Our View: Chapman is reportedly looking for a deal in the $40-$60 million range, so that pretty much eliminates everyone except for the Red Sox and Yankees. The Cubs, Cardinals, and White Sox will all meet with Chapman next week, but it seems unlikely any of those teams will be able to afford the flame-throwing lefty.

Chapman meeting with GMs in NYC on Wednesday
ESPN.com reports that coveted Cuban defector Aroldis Chapman is slated to arrive in New York on Wednesday to begin a series of meetings with multiple MLB general managers.
Our View: Chapman, widely considered to be the greatest left-handed pitching prospect of all time, would not confirm a specific itinerary, but it is expected that he will visit with Yankees and Red Sox executives. There will undoubtedly be many more suitors than that though, as any team with a cushy payroll is likely to get involved to some degree. Expect the Dodgers, Angels, Mets and possibly even the Giants to reach out to the 21-year-old southpaw. There could be a vicious bidding war this winter.
