The Angels have scouted Aroldis Chapman

[QUOTE]Aroldis Chapman isn't ready to sign with an MLB team yet, but once he is, the Angels will be interested, according to Mark Saxon of the OC Register. Angels scouting director Eddie Bane told Saxon that the Angels always have interest in top pitchers. They scouted Daisuke Matsuzaka and took a look at Stephen Strasburg even though there's no way he was falling to the Angels at 25th overall.

The Angels have already scouted Chapman and they're impressed with his fastball, but say he needs to develop his secondary pitches.[/QUOTE]

Its all about the age

Like you said, if he’s young make a move, but some of these guys coming out of the D.R. and Latin America age 3 or 4 years when there here in the States.

This from MLBTRADERUMORS

One GM told Brian Lewis of the New York Post that he expects Cuban lefty Aroldis Chapman to sign for less than the $52MM that Daisuke Matsuzaka received before the 2007 season.

I hope so i thought he would sign for around 8-10M
