Roy Halladay – Phillies/P (2010-13) Roy “Doc” Halladay was a dominant power pitcher with a penchant for going deep into games. Doc spent the last four seasons of his stellar career with the Phillies. Halladay won 203 games in his career (108th all time) and posted 2,117 KOs (69th all-time). In Halladay’s first season with the Phillies, he became the first Phillies 20-game winner in 28 years posting a 21-10 record. One of those wins was Halladay’s perfect game vs Florida Marlins on May 29th. He was NL Pitcher of the Month for July, was awarded the MLB Clutch Performer of the Year Award, MLB Heart and Hustle Award, MLB.com Starter of the Year, was MLB wins leader, 2010 NL All Star, and became one of only six MLB pitchers in history to win the Cy Young in both leagues when he was named the NL winner for 2010. On October 6th, 2010, Halladay threw the 2nd-ever postseason no-hitter in NLDS vs Cincinnati Reds in his first-ever postseason start. He became the 1st pitcher in 37 years to throw two no-hitters in same season, and the first ever to throw a no-hitter AND a perfect game in the same season. His postseason no-hitter won the 2010 MLB.com Postseason Moment of the Year Award for 2010. Halladay followed up his 2010 performance with another All Star appearance in 2011, 2nd in Cy Young voting (Clayton Kershaw), and winning a 2011 ESPY. Halladay is surely a first-ballot Hall of Famer when he becomes eligible in 2019. Tragically, Halladay died on 11/7/2017 when the plane he was piloting crashed into the Gulf of Mexico.
