Aroldis Chapman present at Game 6 victory

According to Jon Heyman, the Yankees invited highly touted Cuban pitching prospect Aroldis Chapman to watch Game 6 of the ALCS at Yankee stadium, and the 21* year-old lefty was in attendance to watch the Yankees clinch the American League Pennant. Seems like a pretty good negotiation tactic to me.The invitation is a not-do-subtle way of gaining an advantage in talks for the talented left-handed pitcher. Word is that Chapman is seeking a deal worth $40-60 million, and the Yankees and Red Sox could be gearing up for a battle. (source)Heyman went on to list the Cubs, Blue Jays, Rangers, Mets, Orioles and White Sox as teams interested in Chapman. The Tigers are also supposedly interested. $40 million is quite a bit of money for an unproven player, but the pitching market is quite thin this winter and the Yankees may decide to use Joba Chamberlain in the bullpen going forward. If they do, they may want to get their hands more young pitching talent. This should be one of the more exciting...
