Who's got the best odds to sign Masahiro Tanaka?

The Yankees, according to Bovada.

The Yankees are a 3-2 favorite to land the 25-year-old Japanese pitcher, the gambling website says.

The Dodgers are right behind at 11-4, it says.

The rest of the odds: Seattle (5-1), Cubs (7-1), Red Sox (10-1), Diamondbacks (12-1), Angels (15-1), Rangers (15-1), White Sox (18-1), Blue Jays (18-1).

Tanaka went 24-0 with a 1.27 ERA for the Rakuten Golden Eagles last season. He's expected to fetch a deal worth around $100 million for six years, and the team that signs him must give his former team a $20-million posting fee.

The Yankees are expected to aggressively pursue Tanaka. The righty could help bring stability to a rotation surrounded by question marks and comprised by CC Sabathia, Ivan Nova and Tanaka's countryman Hiroki Kuroda.

The Dodgers just agreed to a historic seven-year, $215-million contract with lefty Clayton Kershaw, but could still be in the market for another big-named pitcher.

How much money would you bet the Yankees sign Tanaka?
