I guess I have a team to cheer for in the NL...go Phillies! Halladay is a real class act through and through. He deserves to win and the Blue Jays just aren't competitive - with or without Halladay. He gave us a fighting shot every 5 games but didn't have the support needed to take the team further. The Phils definitely give Halladay a chance to win the World Series that Halladay deserves.
I remember in the late 90s and early 2000s when Halladay looked like he was going to be a bust. Instead, he went down to single A ball and rebuilt his entire delivery and the entire trajectory of career. It would have been easy for him to resist such change but, in the end, he just wanted to pitch well and win. Thankfully, his hard work paid off and we had several great years of watching the best in the business work his magic. Now he moves on to a team that gives him the legitimate shot at the Series that he deserves.
