According to sources, the most competitive offers for Roy Halladay initially came from clubs he was ultimately unwilling to go to; the White Sox, Cubs and Dodgers. Heading to the meetings, GM Alex Anthopoulos had not asked for a list of teams to which his ace would accept a trade. He could then honestly approach everyone and find out what they had to offer without feeling he was leading them on. Here is a list of some of the real offers against which the Phillies were ultimately competing, according to sources. The Angels offered lefty Joe Saunders and catcher Mike Napoli. The Yankees offered catcher Jesus Montero in a straight-up scenario. The Red Sox were now not even willing to make a one-for-one with Clay Buchholz. They were saving their financial bullets for one stud hitter, John Lackey, and/or Aroldis Chapman.
