New York Yankees: Masahiro Tanaka deserves an extension

The New York Yankees have some big decisions looming next year, particularly with Masahiro Tanaka.

Even with the 2020 season postponed until further notice, make no mistake. General manager Brian Cashman and his team are certainly thinking about the future, particularly the pitching staff. This decision largely features Tanaka, not to mention teammate James Paxton and others.

In a nutshell, only newly-signed Gerrit Cole is certain to be in the starting rotation on Opening Day 2021. Everyone else, meanwhile, is kind of up in the air. Fully loaded as the Yankees are now, there is every possibility the 2021 team will look fully different.
