Newsbreakers

November 13, 2009

Vernon Wells underwent surgery on his left wrist today, according to the Associated Press. He is expected to be recovered in time for spring training.

Our View:

Doctors repaired cartilage damage in his wrist sustained while diving to make a catch against the Indians in 2008. His wrist was a main cause for his disappointing 2009 campaign, and Wells will aim to bounce back next year.

November 3, 2009

The Associated Press reports Vernon Wells will undergo surgery next week to repair damaged cartilage in his left wrist. He is expected to be ready for spring training.

Our View:

Can they work on his swing while they are in there? Wells, who will be entering the third year of a seven-year, $126-million contract in 2010, hit just .260 with 15 home runs and 66 RBI last season. His on-base percentage was an abysmal .311. It's going to be a long five years in Toronto for the Blue Jays and Wells.

September 24, 2009

Vernon Wells led the way for the Jays in a losing effort on Thursday. Wells went 2-for-4 with a home run, a run scored, and all four of his team's RBI in their 5-4 loss to the Mariners.

Our View:

Wells has largely been a disappointment this season, but he still has the ability to put together nights like this. His fantasy value has taken a huge hit, and he will have to prove he can still hit consistently before he returns to his previous fantasy value.

September 11, 2009

Vernon Wells helped carry the Jays in tonight's 6-4 win at Detroit, as he went 2-for-3 with two RBI. He hit a single and a double.

Our View:

Wells has two hits in two of his last three games, and ended a three-game skid without any RBI.

August 21, 2009

Vernon Wells homered, doubled and drove in two Friday night as the Jays topped the Angels 5-4.

Our View:

Wells has taken a lot of heat this season for not performing up to the standards set by his monster contract. He's hitting just .257 with 13 homers, so hopefully you didn't overpay for him like Toronto did.
