It just seems like the organization has already basically told the fans "We're not even gonna try to keep Wells." If I was a fan living in Toronto (in Calgary we're a bit removed from baseball, although I still follow intensely), I'd see this as kind of a kick in the nuts, if my favourite team told me they're not even going to try to keep their best player and a fan favourite.

I think that would only be the attitude of the casual fan.
I think most of the fans that follow the team with regularlity understand that the ball largely rests in VW's court and his failure to express any real desire to stay is what is creating the uncertainty.
Bottom line - I don't know when he'll be dealt, but I don't think he's staying long-term.
