But what if Roy had stayed and played out his final year of his contract? The starting rotation would be Halladay, Marcum, Romero, Cecil, and Morrow. This would rival any rotation in baseball and be one of the most consistent squads in the Major Leagues. The worst part about Halladays time in Toronto always has been his run support. The Jays currently are +25 in runs this season and have a 34-27 record. If you add Halladay into the mix the Blue Jays would be the leaders of the AL East. If by some miracle the bats stayed hot for the full season they would win the division. Worst case scenario the wild card. This would have resulted in Halladay resigning in Toronto.
Hindsights a bitch.
