Now that Doc has signed an extension the next player in line is Vernon Wells.
Ricciardi and Wells talked and they decided to address a contract extension at the end of this season.
Said Wells, "J.P. and I had a discussion, and he wants me to play out the year and go with my gut instinct, and we'll go from there."
Wells is under contract this year and the 2007 season. Blair writes that if Wells is not willing to sign an extension after the season the Jays will trade him.

The Jays lost to the Phillies 8-1 yesterday. However, Ty Taubenheim, acquired by the Jays in the Overbay trade, continued his strong spring going two scoreless innings to keep his ERA at 0.00 for the spring in 6 innings. He's likely to take one of the rotation spots in NH.
