TORONTO - Toronto Blue Jays centre-fielder Vernon Wells rejoined his teammates
Friday and took batting practice for the first time since straining his left
hamstring two weeks ago. Devin Hester Youth Jersey . But his chances
for another faster-than-expected recovery from injury – he needed only four
weeks instead of six to come back from a fractured right wrist earlier this
season – are complicated by the fact he also has a torn tendon, a revelation he
made to reporters just before he took the field. Opinions have varied on whether
Wells needs surgery or not to correct the problem. For now, hes trying to
strengthen the leg and avoid going under the knife. “Ive learned that when you
talk to doctors theres a lot of rules of thought, a lot of people think
different things,” he said. “Ive gotten answers, `Yes youll need surgery, and
`No, it will heal itself. “Its a tendon you dont need, its the tendon they use
when they reconstruct your ACL (anterior cruciate ligament). I almost kind of
wished it tore and gotten it over with and not have any nagging injuries. Thats
another thing, they said if I come back early its going to be bugging me for a
while.” Wells was injured stealing third against Baltimore on July 9 and was
placed on the DL the next day with the expectation hed miss four-to-six weeks.
He had been rehabbing the injury at the teams training facility in Dunedin,
Fla., before rejoining his teammates in Toronto. Prior to Fridays BP session,
hed only hit off a tee, done some running and strength exercises. “Florida is a
little depressing, youre by yourself – Id rather be here with the guys and feel
like youre still part of the team instead of being out,” said Wells, adding he
cant push the envelope too much. “If the tendon that I tore pops its going to be
weeks for sure. “Thats why you have to take it easy on it.” The Blue Jays have
fared well without their cleanup hitter, taking a 7-4 mark without Wells into
Fridays contest with the Seattle Mariners. They also went 15-11 without him when
he worked back from the fractured wrist. Major Wright Womens Jersey . The former
Calgary Flames bench boss told The Edmonton Journal on that he has not been
asked to coach the Edmonton Oilers and hasnt even had an interview. Charles Tillman Jersey . Only goal difference

happens on the football field and when I think of why, and I do not know, it
