Looks like Crasnick has noticed.

There are 126 million reasons to feel pressure. Vernon Wells is well aware that he has yet to give Toronto some sort of return on its mega investment

Have the Blue Jays gotten equal value for their investment? Regardless of how wonderful a person Wells is, it's tough to make that claim.

Since Opening Day 2007, Wells has a slugging percentage of .429 -- the same as Chris Duncan and Rickie Weeks. Among the players who are better: Melvin Mora, Kevin Kouzmanoff, Chris Snyder and Ronnie Belliard.

Over that same span, Wells has an on-base percentage of .317 -- the same as Jody Gerut and Brad Ausmus.

I like the 41-game, 160-at-bat streak without a homer that it mentions, since that represents about a third of a season.
