If I were a Jays fan, I would be hoping that the Jays trade Well and get several players in return. They still have holes to fill and maybe by trading VW they could find a middle infielder and another starting pitcher.

A bargain???
Thats one million more a year than what Beltran makes and 4 million more than what Pujols makes.
I know those contracts, especially Pujols who should be the highest paid guy in the MLB, are a bit older, but even with the money being thrown around there is no way that Wells should be making close to these guys and no way he should be making more.
18 million a year and he should be thanking the lord someone was dumb enough to sign him for that. He is not a top tier guy.
