No, he is simply not worth it on our budget to keep a Vernon Wells type of player. He already turned down 4/52. We also have 2 players who make a lot less who can play CF too. Rios and Johnson. A lot easier to fill the power numbers left by their void in the corners.
It is better to have 3 above average type of players around the Diamond, like a Lyle Overbay type than 1 Vernon Wells.
