虽然挑战大联盟的日本球员在回归日职以后多半会在日职走完职业生涯
不过田中将大的态度看起来不是这么一回事
昨天他在记者会上说
“I feel I have unfinished business in America, and I haven’t given up on
that, so they agreed on terms that would keep those options open,”
报导猜测他虽然签了两年约,不过今年结束能够跳脱合约寻求大联盟的机会
同时认为他其实今年是有可能留在大联盟的,只是没拿到满意的报价
“At the instant I became a free agent, truthfully, my desire was to re-sign
with the Yankees and continue playing for them,” Tanaka said. “But at a
very early stage, I heard from them through my agent and felt it would be
better if I considered other options, which I considered, including a return
to Japan.”
田中也说他成为自由球员的当下是很想跟洋基重新签一份合约的,但在谈判非常初期的阶
段听到球团透过经纪人表达的意见就知道自己最好考虑其他的选项,包含回日本
MLB TR有篇报导认为田中2022年有可能会回洋基,今年没签是因为想重置豪华税,没办法
给出让田中满意的价码
不过看Jon Heyman这篇推文的讲法又觉得田中回洋基的机会微乎其微

洋基觉得有迹象显示田中的stuff退步了,所以季后才没什么尝试跟他重签新约
