Heard a rumor today that shocked me.
My friend was visiting his therapist, and he overheard talk among the doctors that Roy Halladay was recently tested for cancer by the Phillies.
Said that they were talking and said that the Phillies were concerned that Halladay had lost significant speed on his fastball and at first the Phillies thought it was just the flu.
Said they became alarmed when something was apparently discovered that made them worry. Said they had him tested for cancer.
Take it for what it's worth. Don't know if it's true or not and we'll probably never know.
