Rangers starting pitcher Yu Darvish was asked Tuesday about fellow Japanese hurler Masahiro Tanaka, who signed a seven-year, $155 million contract with the Yankees in January. Interestingly enough, Darvish didn't shy away from commenting about Tanaka's contract.
"I don't know too much about the new posting system, but I think the Yankees gave him too much," Darvish said, per MLB.com. "I think (Hiroki) Kuroda, (Hisashi) Iwakuma and I really helped him as far how the scouts and teams evaluated him."
