David Wells?

Could David Wells Return To Yankees?
9th May, 2008 - 8:09 pm
The New York Post - Free-agent hurler David Wells admitted to The New York Post on Thursday that he has been working out near his home in San Diego, and he believes that he could help bolster the Yankees rotation.

Hank Steinbrenner also admitted that he has considered Wells as a solution when considering the team's recent rotation struggles.

"I've thought about it," Steinbrenner said. "I saw him on TV, and I did think about it when I was watching."

"I'm in shape, I'd just have to fine-tune a couple of things," Wells said. "I'd need a little bit of time, but not much. Physically I feel fine, real good.

Wells has 239 career victories, with a pair of stints in pinstripes over the last decade.


It's on the wiretap and also the Daily News.

Earlier I would have said hell no but I'd rather give Wells a shot with a minor league deal than see Igawa pitch ever again.

Id still prob say hell no.
They traded him to the jays back in 98 because he was a club house cancer... when he returned to them he once again was a club house cancer... im sure he'll be the same fi they signed him again.


He's the non juicing, arrogant ass hat, pitcher version of Barry Bonds.... not exactly what id want around. Id rather take a chance on Freddy Garcia, or try a trade else where... over signing him

Must be true, if it's a rumor you read on Hoopshype.

Drag up Hideki Irabu while we're at it, too. I think The Boss finally had his body dumped in the East River once he handed over the reigns to his sons.

I'll pass, I don't think Wells has anything left in the tank. Besides, he's not someone I want in our locker room serving as a mentor for our young arms.

IDK. The thought of Wang showing up to the ballpark smashed off of Saki Bombs on his day on the mound sounds pretty appetizing. Plus, he'd probably throw a perfecto that day.

Return to New York Yankees
