It all comes down to opinion, but I was watching TSN last night after the game and their "Insider" said if he were to get traded to the LAD, Kershaw would be the guy they'd start with in return. Sounds like a bonafide pitching prospect to me. I guess we'll agree to disagree, but IMO, there really isn't a single pitcher who is quite like Halladay overall. Lincecum really is the only one who may be like him, but nobody has his conditioning where he doesn't get injured, and plays 9 innings (essentially saving your bullpen 20% less work). That's huge.
