Masahiro Tanaka, The Cubs, And Conflicting Reports

Beware reports suggesting Cubs have high offer on table for Tanaka or that he's favoring Cubs. Multiple sources say Cubs remain long shots.

This is why I dislike the game and what Twitter has brought to it, conflicting reports. I really REALLY hate conflicting reports because it tells me people just put news out there just to be first, not to be correct. I hate it but I digress because now reports are coming out saying that the Chicago Cubs are not the leaders for Masahiro Tanaka like we have all been led to believe. The report, seen above, even states the Cubs are long shots at this point for the Japanese import. I like this report better than I do the reports that Chicago will blow everyone out of the water so I will go with these reports. Either way we find out soon, maybe as soon as today or tomorrow, and no later than Friday. The end is near.
