That's what I found weird about him wanting to come back, is that he dissed TO fans. Oh well, it could just be posturing by Wells and his agent to get SD to up their price. Who knows.

Nothing really special. I've just always liked read biographies of people. The only things I really remember from it is what I mentioned and that he really seemed to like being in Alberta (?) when he was in single A.

I...I agree with Charlie that it seems very strange. I think the weirdest part is that is says he would be interested in Toronto, even though he hated playing here according to his book. He ripped into the Toronto fans, and moreso, the media a few times. I think that he is really just interested in a contract, and he won't say no to the Jays in case everything else falls through.
