ANAHEIM, Calif. - Boston’s Animal House has found its Bluto.
The Red Sox reached agreement with volatile lefty David Wells on Saturday to bolster the rotation and join the frat house full of “idiots” who rebelled against baseball tradition and won the team’s first World Series title since 1918.
Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein said the team won’t comment on any deals until the players pass their physicals. But a baseball source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told The Associated Press that the 41-year-old Wells will get $8 million guaranteed over two years with incentives that could bring it up to $18 million.
Wells gets a $3 million signing bonus and a salary of $2.5 million a year. In addition, he would earn $200,000 per start from 11-20 and $300,000 per start from 21-30.
.......
Wells missed three starts in late May and early June after tripping over a bar stool at home, knocking a bottle of wine onto the floor and landing on it and a glass he was holding. He severed a tendon in his right wrist, requiring surgery, and cut his left palm.
hehehe...41, and still fat. But rich.
