Apparently, he loves it there and misses the clubhouse that he joined to get to the World Series in 2009. How did the Phillies show their love? They traded him. This means the NL East [...]

They opted to take their chances elsewhere, looking to get a 5 year deal at around $70+M. Marlins offered 4 years at $48M. Kind of reminds one of [...]
