    Wells pulls trade request, staying in Boston

    I don't think I'd wanted him here anyways, not with what we probably would've had to give up

    I doubt you would have had to give much. Maybe a Termell Sledge and some money since the Pads knew Wells wanted back.

    perhaps.

    Word on the rumor mill was that it would've taken Dave Roberts...and even that would've been too much for me.

    But I would've been fine with Sledge for Boomer....I just doubt that that'd be all it'd take

    Yeah you are probably right. I was just saying you don't have to give up much for a 42 year old who is asking to be traded. Roberts is too high for that.

    Would be nice to have a guy in the rotation that you know has a chance to win 15 besides Peavy............

    I don't know if I like a 43 year old pitcher's chances to win 15 anymore than, say, Chris Young's

    True...........however Wells does make a better run at 15 compared to Estes, Woody & Chan Ho..........and sorry I didn't quantify that better, I was comparing Wells to the other aging vets we have......... my bad
