Randy Wells Will Not Slump
Why Cubs fans fear a sophomore slump for Randy Wells I don’t know.
He showed up early to spring camp…has a perfect 3-0 record in Mesa…and shows no signs of a Geovany Soto letdown.
Wells should have been a 15-game winner in 2009…maybe even more…but the Cubs gave him practically no run support in his first seven outings.
He started 0-3…didn’t earn his first win until his eighth appearance…and yet he led the staff in ERA (3.05) while tying Ted Lilly for most wins (12).
