He had problems with his back for several years, it wasn't until his career was threatened that he decided to get in shape.At least in shape for him. You've made a big point about Bartolo doing things for other teams he was with and not the Sox. Wells was horrible for the Sox. He was supposedly Mr. complete game, he won 5 games.He didn't live up to his end of the deal. At least he didn't cost the Sox anything but a lot of money. $2 million a win, $625,000 a start.
