Tanaka says he isn't thinking about ability to opt out (Yahoo Sports)

New York Yankees ace Masahiro Tanaka says he is not thinking about his opt-out provision. ''It's something that I put aside going into the season,'' Tanaka said Wednesday through a translator. Tanaka arrived at the Yankees' minor league complex Monday for pre-spring training workouts, and the 28-year-old right-hander threw off a bullpen mound Wednesday.
