Just blindly throwing something out there.

But none of that matters if Wells doesn't want to stay. He'll command whatever dollar figure he wants when he becomes a Free agent so it becomes a matter of where he wants to play.
Normally players come up with the usual tripe statements "Well I want to stay in Toronto, but its a matter of finding a deal that works".
We haven't heard even that type of vague statement from Wells.
