Vernon Wells hinted Sunday that he does not plan to opt out of his contract this offseason.
And why would he? Wells, who has batted just .219 with a .252 on-base percentage in 121 games this year, is owed $21 million annually through 2014. He wouldn't come close to that salary on the open market. It's a wonder why the Angels ever wanted to trade for him in the first place.
