Roy Halladay probably should have won the 2011 NL Cy Young Award

On Sunday, two-time Cy Young Award winner Roy Halladay will posthumously be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. There’s a case to be made that his plaque – which won’t feature a Toronto Blue Jays or Philadelphia Phillies hat – should instead be engraved with the phrase “three-time Cy Young Award winner.”

In 2010, Halladay’s first season with the Phillies, he had one of the most memorable seasons a pitcher has ever had. In his age-33 season, Halladay went 21-10 with a 2.44 ERA, 3.01 FIP, nine complete games and a 6.2 fWAR in over 250 regular season innings.
