October 7, 200520 yr I remember Wells having back spasims during a game against the Cubs when he was with the Sox. But what else did he do to piss us off. I remember something about him leaving on bad terms or something.
October 7, 200520 yr Publicly doubted the legitimacy of Frank Thomas' injury, suggesting Frank was tanking it. f***in' douchebag.
October 7, 200520 yr He said Frank was faking his injury or being soft when he tore the ligament diving for the ball at 1B.

October 7, 200520 yr Yeah, and then like 5 minutes later, Fatass goes on the DL cuz his back couldn't handle the weight of his front. Stupid Curly-looking piece of s***.
October 7, 200520 yr He stole $7 million (or thereabouts), reported fat and out of shape, said deal with it - that's how he pitches and he knows his body, and proceded to get hurt and miss most of the season because he's a fat load. The following season he signed with the Yankees and showed up in great shape (relatively) and had a good year.
October 7, 200520 yr Well, you can look at it another way... some of the pitchers on the roster openly say Boomer taught them some great things when he was here. So, is that worth it if we go on to win it all?

October 7, 200520 yr By far, my least favorite ex Sox player. Took a year off when came here. He only wanted to play in NY or Boston and when that didn't happen, he 'chilled' in Chicago. Called Frank out in the press. Was a total jerk at the bars, constantly dissing Chicago and getting hammered and into fights.

October 7, 200520 yr Who is this David Wells you are speaking of? Is that the 2005 ALDS Game 2 losing pitcher? Cuz that's how I will remember him.
October 7, 200520 yr Wells actually wanted to come back, saying he owed the White Sox. But after the Thomas thing I dont think anyone really wanted him back. And I thought we traded Mike Sirotka for him? Not that he signed as a free agent. So he never had a choice of Boston or NY. SB
