ugh. if it doesnt hurt us spending in other areas im ok with it, but I think it will but than again im just a fan. My main concern is he has high mileage on him for being 25.

He's probably going to meet with 15 teams, so nothing really to see here. Wait until the negotiations actually begin

its going to have to happen soon. teams are still on stand by and there are still quite a few FAs waiting for him to drop plus other teams waiting to make trades. pitchers and catchers will be reporting in the not so distant future.

Get him Hahn. Sale and Tanaka 1-2 with Q and Danks as the 3-4.

He's only 25 too. We spent 70 mil on a questionable Cuban hitter. Why not a stud pitcher. It would also help in ticket sales.

The Sox can afford Tanaka if they really want him. All the positions are set, so splurging on a frontline starter is the right move.

Considering his youth and the lack of prospects in the minors, there is no reason whatsoever to pass on Tanaka.

If we snag tanaka we really only need a catcher. Gota figure out who is closing. Getting tanaka would give Hahn a terrific offseason and rebuilt team. I'd buy the MLB extra innings package on directv if he pulls this off

I don't think money will be an issue. It's where Tanaka wants to play. Hopefully with us having Japanese players before it helps (Shingo Takatsu and Tad Iguchi).

No problem. Kershaw is a FA in 2016.
Let's projection our rotation with Him for 2017.

Sale, Kershaw, ....

Dodgers are trying to buy a championship like the Yankees.

You can't buy championships. Well see in a couple weeks where he lands. I like our chances.
