I think Halladay is definitely worth the 6th round cost. Depending on who's projected to be out there, I'd take Greinke for the substantial round difference if there are better values than Halladay.

Greinke seems like a very good baragain. He would get my vote for sure.

Please help!

Yeah, Greinke's the choice here. You're obviously losing some quality but the pick you'll be getting in the 6th will net you more quality (Greinke - 22nd) than what you'd get otherwise (Halladay - 6th). Plus, I think the Royals take a step forward in a relatively week Central division, while the Jays will be fighting for 4th and going up against some very, very strong offenses in the East.

A pretty good consensus for Grienke.

You can also look at as getting either Halladay and a 22nd rd pick OR Grienke and a 6th rounder.

Put some expected names in and it's a no-brainer for Grienke.

Greinke

And can you trade Halladay for a pick or picks? If so, Im sure someone else would keep him

I'm gonna vote for Greinke as well. Beyond the round difference in keeping Greinke over Halladay, you already have Lincecum as your staff ace. With round 3-8 picks available, you should be able to get some more solid bats and round out your staff more then adequately. Votto in the 22nd is also a steal, and Lincecum, arguably the best fantasy starter in the 9th, you've got a nice core of values with no brainer 1st and 2nd rounders A-Rod and Sizemore. Good luck. Help with mine please?
