Jays GM will listen to Halladay offers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS 3:28 PM EDT, July 7, 2009

TORONTO - Blue Jays general manager J.P. Ricciardi says he's willing to listen to offers for ace Roy Halladay.

"I don't think anything has changed, I just think, 'You know what, why not listen? The worst we can say is no,"' Ricciardi told The Canadian Press on Tuesday.

"If someone wants Roy and they're willing to blow us away, we'd be willing to listen, that's all I'm saying. That doesn't mean we'd trade him, that doesn't mean we're looking to trade him. All it means is we'd be willing to listen."

Halladay is 10-2 with a 2.79 ERA in 16 starts. He'll be paid $14.25 million this year and his contract expires after the 2010 season, when he's set to earn $15.75 million.

"In the past we weren't willing to listen and we figured let's just see what someone's got out there and what someone is willing to offer," Ricciardi said.

The Blue Jays began Tuesday at 43-41, seven games back of Boston in the AL East and six out of the wild card -- behind six other teams.

Even if Haliday is available he will not be a yankee. They won't trade in within the division
