He hasnt been as effective this year, but then again he struggling in the early months last year. Is he going to turn it around and remain a top tier SP. I was thinking of offering Wade Miller and Odalis Perez for him. Would that be a good move or is he going to continue to put up average-at-best numbers.
The biggest concern for me as a Halladay owner is his walks are up, already nearly equal to his last year total. That being said I am not at all worried about him and he is a must-start ace.

I disagree to a point.
While he was good in 2002, he hadnt done anything before that. In 2001, he posted good %s, but only started 16 games and ended with a 5-3 season record.
Last yr he posted his highest totals in Ws, Ks, and IP while having a lower WHIP than he ever had before. Thats 3 of the major 4 SP catagories that he had career bests in last yr - Id say thats the definition of a career yr.
he will pitch better than he has thus far this year, but because of the shoulder problem (do you actually believe that he is 100%?) I don't think we'll see the same Roy as last year.
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach a man to fish and he'll drown because you forgot to teach him to swim.

If you take into account his IP, 2002 and 2003 are very similar with a small change in WHIP. The same goes for 2001 as he only pitched 100 innings. Career years are only career years when they are drastically above other years. If there is a slight improvement from year to year, that's not a career year.

Once again, I disagree with you here. A career yr for a player still playing means his performance numbers are better than he ever posted before.
When you post your best totals in Ws, Ks, and WHIP in the same season - even by a little bit, thats a career yr until you beat those numbers.
By your standard some players will never have a career yr.
