David Wells told the New York Post he'd step off the mound if the Red Sox repeat as World Series champions.
"It means I can retire and go home," Wells told the paper. "If we win ... that would be a storybook ending right there.
"Give that money they owe me next year, give it to a young guy. There's a couple of guys here pretty deserving. That would be a great finish."
Wells said Sunday that he has had three cortisone shots and might need surgery on his right knee during the offseason.
