He doesn't have the bat in my opinion to carry this team. It is pretty good as far as CFs go, but it isn't amazing. To be a franchise player, you've got to be hitting 40+ homers and be getting on base A LOT more than Wells is.
Not to mention, where is the track record? He doesn't have one regarding his offense. Prior to this season he had 2 pretty average years, and was barely a top 10 CF in MLB.
Wells isn't the face of this team either. Roy Halladay is IMO.
