April 10 - While Tanaka has enjoyed overall success against the Toronto Blue Jays during his career, we say stay clear.
Edwin Encarnacion has managed to go 7-for-14 against him while Toronto is in the midst of a 10-game winning streak following a shutout of their opponent the past two seasons.
Priced at $9100, Tanaka was supposed to have started against Detroit on Sunday but that game was postponed.
ESPN.com writes of Tanaka’s performance last season:
The 27-year-old also experienced slight regression in several major categories in his second season stateside, with increases in ERA (3.51), walk rate (1.6 BB/9), HR/9 (1.5) and HR/FB (16.9%). Tanaka nevertheless demonstrated above-average control and lowered the batting average he surrendered to hitters from both sides of the plate.
