Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com reports that the Angels would have to eat "almost all" of Vernon Wells' contract in a trade with the Yankees. FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reported Saturday that the Yanks might have interest in the veteran outfielder, but Heyman says a deal isn't close to going down. The Angels are fully aware that they'll have to pick up most of the $42 million owed to Wells in order to move him, and the outfielder's no-trade clause is another stumbling block. Wells batted just .230/.279/.403 for the Halos this past season after hitting .218/.248/.412 in 2011.
