Because we already said goodbye and he wants to win. Agree that a stopgap for RF isn't the worst idea, but it can't be Jones. There's too much history.

Need someone younger than AJ. Wished he had retired an Oriole.

The Phillies did say they were going to spend "stupid" money.

No one from the organization actually said that did they?

I heard John Middleton say those specific words. Which were later walked back a bit by the front office. 

I also heard Cashman say he had a fully operational Death Star.

 That has to hurt your negotiating power a bit right?   Lol.

I think they are high on Manny. Still not the greatest negotiating tactic.

He did.
And it blew up.

So he started to build a second one
And it blew up

So he built one the size of a planet
(Stop me if you've heard this before) it blew up.

AJ really cared about his team.  When they sucked, you saw his frustration.  When it went well, you saw his jubilation and the kid in him.

The man was invested.

And his charity speaks for itself.

Mets going younger than AJ as they add Broxton:
