Source: Halladay would consider Rangers
Roy Halladay wants to play for a perennial contender. So, would he approve a trade to the Rangers, who last made the postseason in 1999?
Maybe.
Halladay has not ruled out waiving his no-trade clause for the Rangers, according to a source with knowledge of his thinking.
However, he is not as certain to approve a deal to Texas as he is to the Yankees, Red Sox or either of the Los Angeles teams.
The Rangers are 2½ games behind the Angels in the AL West and 1½ games behind the Red Sox for the wild card.
They have the prospects to land Halladay, but many in baseball doubt their ability to take on his remaining salary in 2009 and '10.
