Buster Olney: Halladay for Dummies

You've probably heard by now that the Blue Jays seem to be pretty serious about trading Roy Halladay, and the price is going to be high. They will probably trade him, if not out of the AL entirely, most likely out of the AL East - which is good for them, bad for us. How might the NL Central get Roy Halladay? Buster Olney breaks it down.

The Cardinals about Halladay, and a club official told Joe Strauss what he perceives the price tag to be: "Asked about the price tag for Halladay, a club source said: "Give Ricciardi all our minor-league rosters and let him circle any 5 names."

And the Brewers are interested in continuing their recent trend of trading away top prospects for a few months of help (though, to be fair, Halladay is signed through 2010).
