Hope I'm allowed to post the link, but a pretty good read here on Chapman.

Nice article. I didn't know that Chapman was so untrusting of everyone though.
He actually stated '“I don’t trust anybody, only my mother,” Chapman told USA TODAY Sports earlier this season. “Life here has shown me you can’t trust anybody.'
So his stay in the US has given him this trust issue. Odd, but ok.
We chatted with Chapman outside of Wrigley on Sat. He posed for pictures with us and was very nice. My buddy hailed him a cab. Seemed like average guy outside the lines.
