I'll take 6 strikeouts, no walks, 3 earned runs. The Phillies could give him more than 1 run and help him get some W's

What about the 9 hits in 5 innings, you like that ratio, too?

Hes struggling right now, no way around it. He hasnt been the same pitcher since coming off the DL. I fully expect him to get his shit together, but these be the facts.

Compared to our starting rotation in Philly, yes. lol

Beckett, Halladay, Lester, Penny or Smoltz or Dice-K and Wakefield = Championship

 

[Kuzzy Powers]

Doesn't matter he's a proven winner, CY young contender, and he would be going to the National League where he will have even more of an advantage for the rest of the year before they get tape on him.

Im not denying that Roy is the best pitcher in the game, he is. I was just stating that he has indeed not been pitching very well since coming off the DL, he probably came off it too soon.

Holliday hinted @ wanting to be traded to the yankees.

Halladay, who deftly maneuvered around a barrage of questions for more than 15 minutes, said he would not mind going to the National League or a bigger market.

"I'd rather hit than face Jeter, A-Rod, Matsui and Teixeira," Halladay said.

So why not join them?

 

[chazmaniandevil]

hes not going to the yanks, they already said theyre not going to do it (see page 1)

I wouldn't take that as the truth. Sherman only wrote that in the past, Yankees officials have been reluctant to trade big prospects for high salaried players, such as Johan. The Yankees do have an interest in Halladay, but they will not overpay. They need something to get them up to the next level over the Red Sox, but they will not add a ton more salary AND give up the top prospects for Halladay. If the Yankees can somehow find a good medium, then they will be players. If the cost for Halladay is too high, then obviously many teams will drop out, including the Yankees.

If I'm the Yankees though, I'm not worried about saving my pitching prospects in a Halladay deal.

Lol.. not sure if you were joking but thats not a hint that he wants to join the Yanks.

By the way, the Blue Jays traded Roger Clemens to the Yankees, in division.

The Yankee would probably have to include Chamberlain, Hughes and more to get Halladay and that is probably just to much for them to give up.

They way shits going down on this, you think he would be traded at some point by the end of this week. Now he is saying that he would mind playin for a big market, playoff team in the NL. I would like the Phills to have him, but I just don't want to sell the farm Yankee style.

 

[Chrispy]

yeah i wasnt being serious for that being a hint, but after the yankees previous 3 games i wouldnt doubt cashman isnt thinking more about a deal.

 

[chazmaniandevil]

if youre a pitcher you want to face nl teams

Cardinals





Rangers



Phillies







Yankees OUT



White Sox



OTHER TEAMS IN THE HUNT - ANGELS (Definitely), RED SOX (Maybe)

The Yankees will be back in it if the Red Sox start to make a move. lulz

If he ends up getting traded i'd love for him to go as far as possible, somewhere like the NL West.

I'd throw in Hughes and another pitching prospect in a second if I'm the Yankees. I want to keep Joba, because he's either going to eventually take over for Mo or he's going to continue as a decent starter.

wouldnt work, hes worth more than joba and huges with more too

 

[Hasselbeck]

I think for Toronto to trade Halladay in their division they would basically have to be blow away with an offer from Boston or New York.

I personally think Halladay will wind up in St. Louis or Philadelphia.. but thats just me.

 

[Chrispy]

If he goes to the NL im fine with a trade but if he goes to AL and its not the yankees ill be pissed.
