The Yankees probably aren’t the best money-making opportunity for Masahiro Tanaka.

In case the Yankees didn’t make themselves clear by signing Corey Kluber to a one-year, $11 million deal and banking on his resurgence, it seems Masahiro Tanaka isn’t in their plans.

But, despite MLB’s doldrums, the dependable righty does have one last chance for a big-time contract ahead of him this offseason — as long as he’s willing to call it a big-league career after seven seasons.
