Roy HalladayWhile the Phillies are "earnest" in their pursuit of Blue Jays ace Roy Halladay, according to a major-league source, the sticking point between the teams might be the inclusion of left-hander J.A. Happ and right-hander Kyle Drabek.

A second source said, "I'd be shocked" if Philadelphia would "reverse course" and include both Happ and Drabek for Halladay. But a third source stated Toronto has "got to" have both.

"The price is going to be high," the first source said. "It's going to be tough to swallow [for the Phillies]. I think it's earnest. I think they're trying to pound something out."
