Very sad news and totally unexpected. I was stunned when I saw the wiretap headline.
He was one of the greats. I still remember him throwing a perfect game during the regular season and then a no-hitter during the postseason that same year.
This is absolutely devastating. Halladay seemed like a really nice person in addition to a great athlete. He's one of those few athletes you just watch in awe even when he plays on a division rival team. What a terribly sad day for baseballs fans. May he RIP.
Couldn't believe it when I heard it earlier. What a total gut-punch. One of the all-time great pitchers but more importantly, one of the all-time great human beings to ever grace the diamond. I've heard nothing but good things about him within the MLB circle. Sucks hard. RIP Big Man... condolences to his family.
