I've said before I'm not the biggest fan of Wells in LF.  If Wells can play a decent part of the season in CF though (with Guti as a late-innings glove replacement if necessary) then his value skyrockets.
Vinnie is not playing CF. ;)
And my hope is that Catricala spent the winter working out with whoever turned Liddi from a bad-fielding 3B into an acceptable one.  If not, Catricala is a LF/1B/DH which...isn't optimal.
Still, I would take 50 2B and 20 HRs from my LF every year and call myself blessed.  And if Ichiro is gone next year (we'll see...) then we'l have another OF spot that needs filling anyway, and Wells has the arm for it if we don't get better options.  Vinnie doesn't.
If Vinnie can hit, we can find a place for him.  But he's only aiming at Wells' spot if Wells can't play a significant amount of innings in CF and Ichiro stays blocking off RF.
So much fun to be had this season.
