Wells looking for positives during slump

The way things have been going lately for Vernon Wells, the Blue Jays' center fielder wasn't surprised by what happened in the third inning on Sunday.
Wells drilled the first pitch he saw from Florida's Josh Johnson back up the middle at Rogers Centre and seemed destined for a single. Instead, Marlins second baseman Dan Uggla made a spectacular diving grab and threw Wells out at first base, robbing him of a hit and sending him back to the dugout still searching for a way out of his persistent slump.
"I had no doubt he was catching it," Wells said with a smirk. "I had no doubt whatsoever. There wasn't even a thought in my mind that it was going to get into center field."

ouch.... you know it's bad when the hitter seems like he's losing confidence in that he knew Uggla was gonna catch it

I drafted Vernon in 2004 for his bad year and I've never trusted him as a fantasy player since then.

Hey Mister, can you spare me a single? Please?
