Yeah, glad he is not here, just because I thought they would have gone out and started signing more betterans and get away from this wait for the kids to show up.
I never saw the two as related. Tanaka would have been an extension of the goal to acquire young talent. Adding a 25 year old pitcher doesn't suddenly mean you go out and sign guys to block Baez, Alcantara, Olt, Bryant, Almora, etc. It's just another piece in place to go with Wood, Rizzo, Castillo and Castro.
