Dude, is Boomer really done playing baseball?
No more spastic outbursts at the home plate Blue?
No more knuckle sandwiches?
Beer belly fastballs?
"Say it, don't spray it" moments in the clubhouse?
Angry press interviews?
Well, not in a San Diego Padres uni, anyway. The club has cut ties with the husky, struggling 44-year-old lefty to make room for All-Star stud Chris Young, who is returning from the disabled list.
Manager Bud Black gave Wells two tough options - they could designate him for assignment and see if any clubs wanted to take him on, or he could retire.
This move comes on the heels of Monday night's game against the St. Louis Cardinals, where Boomer gave up seven runs and 11 hits in just four innings. He went 0-3 with a 14.33 ERA in his last four starts, and 5-8 with a 5.54 ERA overall this season.

Yes, but why leave "Wells Run Dry" unused? Or "Little Susie Fell Down The Wells!"?
Touche, Dave MN.
He can come pitch in Minny!
