Nov. 28: The 38-year-old Wells underwent back surgery in July and despite that is still on the wish list of several teams. Both the Yankees and Mets contacted Wells' agent, Greg Clifton, on Monday, according to a report in the New York Daily News. The Yankees asked for copies of Wells' post-operative reports and Clifton said he will also offer those reports to all other interested clubs. It's believed Wells will have to sign an incentive-laden contract as teams will be reluctant to give him a lot of guaranteed money after having the back surgery. But Clifton did say Wells has told him that he would turn down "a helluva lot more money" just to return to New York.
