Tanaka is going to claim to be injured after tonight's game

[Ratzz]

watch this happen...

he always does this... and the Yoinks (who spent a ABSOLUTE FORTUNE) to get him,
are always happy to sweep this under the carpet as well...

otherwise, it looks like a TERRIBLE long term contract.
at $23M a season.. there is NO WAY another team grabs him
away from the Yanks after the fourth year.

so player option to stay.. and the Yoinks are stuck with him for another 5 seasons..
and he WILL start to go south in a year or two.

story will be "Tanaka may not start Wildcard Game.. etc"

IF they go on to lose this game and are swept at home.
If the Yanks come back and win, they may leave this alone
