Hold Up Philly!!!

Jacob Horn
I love Roy Halladay. The guy is an extremely unique pitcher in the modern era of baseball. I am continually amazed to see how many innings he throws even when his team might be losing. Seeing his pitching lines every five days is truly a breath of fresh air when considering how rare it is for any pitcher to throw 7 or 8 innings nevermind a complete game. Have I made it clear that I think Roy Halladay is incredible. With that being said there is no way on earth I would consider getting rid of Cliff Lee and J.A. Happ. I believe Halladay is a slightly better pitcher than Lee but I fee like Lee has more left in the tank. J.A. Happ could definitely be something special. I do not think he will ever be Roy Halladay but if I was a GM I would hold on to him a few more years just to make sure. I think Philly may end up regretting this move. Halladay is a slight upgrade over Lee but only for the immediate future.
