I saw the sports report on the N.E. Cable News channel and they
spoke to David Wesley following the C's game last night.

He came right out and said he wants to stay.  As long as we make him
a good offer, I think we will stay.  From a playing standpoint,
we've treated him pretty well since his backup days in N.J..

Can't we re-sign him w/out really affecting our own cap?
(Does his salary slot stay the same since he's not a new signing?)
