Halladay,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 32, will sign a contract extension with Philadelphia to complete the blockbuster.
For more Philadelphia sports coverage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], please go to my blog: The Broad Street Scoop He earned his first major league victory in his next start on the road against the Colorado Rockies. Lincecum who is often compared to Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Roy Oswalt faced him in each of his next two starts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Oswalt with the Astros at the time. After the first agree up, Astros third baseman Mike Lamb said,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], The stuff he was throwing out there tonight was everything he is hyped up to be. He was 97 mph with movement. You just don't see that every day. He pitched very much like the pitcher he is compared to and out dueled him throughout the night. The pair dueled to a no decision the first time, and Lincecum pitched eight innings and got the win the second time. The Giants asked Lincecum not to throw the bullpen sessions typical of other pitchers during the off season. Manager Bruce Bochy told the San Francisco Chronicle that they were being careful with Lincecum because there have been studies that show that pitchers who throw 200 innings early in their career were more susceptible to injuries.
Ruben Amaro Jr. now has acquired two former Cy Young winners in his tenure as the general administerr of the Phillies.
Halladay went 17-10 with a 2.79 earned run average last year with the Blue Jays while Lee had a 3.39 ERA in 12 starts for the Phillies.
Lincecum was selected by the Chicago Cubs in the 48 round of the 2003 MLB Draft; however he did not sign up for the team. He decided to attend college instead and was selected by the Cleveland Indians in the 42 round on entering the draft in 2005,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but once again failed to sign. In 2004, he was drafted tenth overall by the San Francisco Giants becoming the first player from the University of Washington to be taken in the first round. He signed for a 2.025 million dollars signing award on June 30, which at the time was the highest amount the organization had ever paid to any amateur player until they gave 2.1 million dollars to Angel Villalona a little over a month later. Nick Laham His repertoire includes a two seam fastball that he throws at 93 mph,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a changeup he grips like a splitter,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a curveball notable for its sharp breaking action,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a slider and a four seam fastball that reaches speeds in the mid nineties.
It took five months longer than Lincecum expected,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but Roy Halladay is a Philadelphia Phillie.
According to Jon Heyman, the Phillies have aavarice to a three-team trade with the Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners that will send Halladay to Philadelphia,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Cliff Lee to Seattle, and a package of prospects from the Phillies and M's to the Blue Jays.
Heyman hasn't been able to confirm whether Lee is the player that Seattle gets in the trade, but Tim Lincecum was able to confirm that Seattle is the third team.
Who Toronto gets from Philadelphia and Seattle is still an unknown.
