Roy Halladay will not stay a Blue Jay in 2010 come trade deadline next year. There have been two teams who have been interest in Halladay and that are the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Red Sox, Dodgers, and Phillies have also been mentioned in degrees of interest as well, simply because Hallaway will cost too much money, or teams will have to give up players if a deal comes down to a trade. We saw what happened last year with the Phillies. The Phillies weren't going to give up their top prospects to get Halladay. As we know the Phillies got Cilff Lee and Ben Francisco from the Cleveland Indians and that deal worked out pretty well for the Phillies.
Halladay is the guy you might want on your team in 2010 cause he's hungry to win a World Series and wants to play for a winning team. The Yankees could use him as their number two starter and move A.J. Burnett as their number three guy .The Yankees goal is to win BACK TO BACK World Series titles and Halladay can help them do just that. The Dodgers, well they could defiantly use him in 2010 only because we saw for the past two years the Dodgers could not get past the Phillies in the NLCS and maybe if Halladay came to the Dodgers he could get them past the NLCS and get them to a World Series and possibly win it for them. For the Phillies, well they have been talking to Halladay since the trade deadline last year but came up emptily, but if the Phillies were to get him next year I think they will have another shot of getting back to the World Series for a third straight year and winning it again for second time in three years. If the Phillies added Halladay in the mix with Lee, Hamels, Happ, and Blanton, I think the Phillies would have the best pitching rotation in baseball. As for the Red Sox, well there in need of pitching only because last year we saw them have the biggest lead in the AL East before the All-Star break and then after the break their pitching staff just broke down. Josh Beckett and Jon Lester were the Sox's best pitchers in 2009 and they didn't make it too far in the postseason last year and if they’re going to look for the spark plug to help them get back to the World Series and win another one than Halladay is your guy. Whoever Halladay goes to in 2010 he's going to cost a lot but it will defiantly pay off in the end he will do the best he can to get a team to a World Series and win one for his new ball club in 2010.
