Yeah I saw something about this guy a few months ago sounded like the new era Babe Ruth, will definitely be worth to much for the Jays to afford but he definitely sounds like a total package player!

If Jays can't afford him that means only LA, SF, NYY and BOS can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd add Texas on there as well they like spending money. Although sure would be interesting to see someone like the Astros go after him they have lots of money to spend and I'm sure they made a lot this year!

I really believe that he'll end up in the NL. A guy like him is going to want to swing the bat and that will only happen in the Senior Circuit. LA/SF seem like the likely bets, but I could see both the Nats and the Cubbies opening their wallets for this guy. Personally, I'm pulling for the former Expos...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 RIP Halladay sad day still can't believe it, one of the best pitchers to ever wear a Jays Jersey, and a class act guy going to be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiggs50 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Doc was one of the 3 best pitchers I personally have ever seen. Such a nice guy. Class act. RIP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiznak Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 (edited) If you could describe Halladay in one word, when he’s on the field, it would be workhorse. He rarely has a bad game, but when he does, he still goes 7-8 innings. You rarely see that in pitchers, today. Off the field he was a class act. I remember a story they did when he threw his first ever perfect game. He bought every single player and staff gold plated watches with their initials engraved on them. I never met the guy, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard a bad thing said about him when he’s in public greeting fans. It’s just despressing, that he never won a championship.

Another would be "stopper". I remember hearing once how he had this incredible record of stopping losing streaks... Just terrible news... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Just brutal news. Hate seeing that happen to anyone, but especially to a guy like him who always was a class act on and off the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
