Halladay V - Final Destination

Well, I must say i'm exited basically on two parts....

1.) Phillies recieve Halladay

2.) Phills prospects go to Toronto Minor League System. Triple A team for the Blue Jays is here in Vegas so I should directly see Carassco and Donald and hope for Drabek by the end of the year?

Guess they lost interest in Scott Downs or Brandon League :-D

I don't know if that is enough

JP is a complete idiot if he doesnt take that deal

How great would it be in Philadelphia if the Phils get Roy Halladay and the Sixers sign Jamaal Tinsley on the same day... or even better, get rejected again by CJ Watson!

Honestly, I'm going to be upset if we give up that much. I have yet to hear one real offer from another team.

me too. That seems like everyone who could help this year or next year. They're almost all ML ready.

Halladay is the best pitcher in baseball.

I get that but it is at the point where they have to trade him. They know this and we know this. Who are we competing against right now? I might come around on that offer a week from now where there are competing bids but now?

Likewise. Too much. I wouldn't be pissed but it's too much.

As I have been saying, Toronto can choose one and only one from the Brown/Drabek/Taylor group.

There is no "week from now"; JP has made it pretty clear that a deal is finished by Tuesday July 28th or there is no deal. Halladay has since talked about testing free agency but I think the real deadline here is the 28th unless JP has since said something I missed.
