Halladay and the Yankees


In a recent post on Matt Cerrone's MetsBlog, I read that the Yankees are inquiring about Halladay. I also read that Halladay's top suiters will be the Yankees and the Red Sox. In another post, I read that the Red Sox like John Lackey in their 2010 rotation, leaving the Yankees with Halladay.

Does anybody get frustrated by this? The Yankees acquiring Roy Halladay will be the nail in the coffin. With Sabathia, Halladay, and Burnett, their 1-2-3 combo will be just too much to handle. The Yankees are just unfair.

Now, I shouldn't be complaining because the Mets don't have a low payroll, but its not close to the Yankees. What do teams like the Tigers or the Astros think? They are numbered 5th and 8th respectively in highest payroll, yet its no where near the Yankees'.

Whoever the Yankees want, they get. This was made clear over the years, not the mention last off season which was ridiculous.

Bring Halladay to New York

Halladay needs to be here. After everything that has happened this year, fans deserve something to look forward to going on to next season. Some say we're out of the Halladay sweepstakes because we lack the prospects/aren't willing to give the ones we have away. The Mets have the money to spend on Halladay, especially when Wilpon said they won't be cutting spending this off season.

With the Yankees not looking for pitching this off season, I'd say we have a decent chance to get Halladay. It might be a stretch, but we did score Johan. Plus, why wouldn't Halladay want to play in New York? He'll get the money, the spotlight, and (hopefully) a good chance to win.

Santana/Halladay would also be very deadly as our 1-2 punch. Sounds good to me, what about you Omar?
