According to Slam! Sports, Halladay has a full no-trade clause but would waive it to go to the Bronx.
“I don’t know who Toronto will wind up with,” a major league executive told Bob Elliot on Friday. “I don’t know when he is going, and I don’t know where he’s going. But I do know that Halladay has told the Jays he’ll approve a trade to the Yankees.”
Both the Red Sox and Angels also are believed to be still in the hunt for the 32-year-old 2003 Cy Young Award winner. Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos isn't opposed to trading within the division for the right deal, and teams reportedly will be granted a 72-hour window to work out an extension with Halladay, who will become a free agent after the 2010 season.
Halladay went 17-10 with a 2.79 ERA this past season to improve his 12-year career record to 148-76.
