In a video interview with multiple media such as the US Yes Network on the 17th (Korean time), Chief Cashman said, "Infielder DJ Le Mayhew (32) is the top priority. But negotiations about Tanaka are also continuing. The Yankees showed a tremendous impact. Because he is a player. I really want to come back again. Negotiation is key,” he said.
Tanaka is one of the starting pitchers' resources, which has a good reputation in the free agency market this winter. He won more than 10 wins for six consecutive years from 2014 to 2019, and this season, which was held with 60 games per team, also left a decent score of 3.56 ERA with an average of 3.56 in 10 games 3-3. There have also been reports that Japan is showing interest in the NPB Rakuten, but it is a public opinion that it will remain in the major leagues so far.
In this situation, the Yankees mentioned Tanaka two days in a row. Yankees coach Aaron Boon also left a statement on the 16th, "Tanaka was a member of the great Yankees and a beloved good partner. I also hope Tanaka will return. I am looking forward to renewing the contract."
Despite comments from Yankees general manager and manager, the local outlook for the stay is skeptical. According to NJ.com in New York local media, the Yankees are considered to be a club that has been heavily affected by the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19).
Therefore, it is believed that Tanaka will not be able to present the long-term contract he wants. In addition, it seems difficult to remain as multiple media such as Toronto, who want to reinforce the selection, may present better conditions to Tanaka.
