Hey Trey. Been a long while. So long I must admit I don't completely understand your contention here, although I'm guessing $9.53M for 0.734 OPS is less than optimal.

Am I doing this right?

Anyway, nice to come by these parts and see old neighbors.

Who let the riffraff in? Nice to see an old neighbor swing by, hope all is well.

Rainman would have said it well - Willie Wells sucks.

    [list=]
    [/list]For what it's worth, I'm generally had very good luck with Willie Wells. He almost alway hit's fo rme. Here's the leaderboard at SS in a 140M league in which I used him, in Navin park.

    And here Wells is in Stars, in a 200M league:
    Wells, W. (NeL) R SS 2e22 558 100 149 24 5 41 106 77 92 7 3 2 20 A 1-16 .267 .359 .548 1 E 9.53M
    An awful lot of an individual player's performance, IMHO, is the rolls he gets in any give year. I've had luck with Wells, and I do find that he can produce. Anyway, I have no complaints.
