Tanaka !!!

...sure you will, and you certainly have every reason to.

 

...you're probably right and to be honest, I did not realize that he is that old...but I'm just taking into consideration that he might be good for 60-70-80 innings.

 

ok... but is $7.5M worth 60-80 innings?

 

I do not give two craps who criticizes this pick up. There will be those
who will critique up the yazoo. So what. Let's move forward.
Who's Cano????

 

...$7.5 mil per year is what the O's were gonna give him before he failed the physical...I don't see him getting that now...I'm guessing he'll only get some sort of 1 year deal now...Kinda like what Napoli had to do last year after failing his physical.

 

Hey 59, no cheetos for you, you also said the Dodgers in the other thread I bumped.

 

...nah, rick owed me a bag of chee-tos from another bet...and the bastid reneged.

 

Cheetos Welcher?

How can he he show himself after that?

 

^^^...simple, he has no self esteem...he makes bets and when he loses, he simply shrugs it off.

 

Yankees weren't either. Just heard cash man on the yes network and he said opt out wasn't in their initial offer but he was told other teams offered it and if he wanted to still be in it they had to offer it also
so he did. Also said an 8 man delegation of yankee officials met with tanaka and representatives as each team was allowed one presentation. Also said matsui spoke directly with tanaka about what the yankees are all about.

 

...that may have been the compelling reason why he signed.
