CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — Being the other Roy on the Philadelphia Phillies’ staff of aces is just fine with Roy Oswalt.
Roy Halladay got most of the attention last year because he threw a perfect game, a no-hitter in his first postseason start and won the NL Cy Young Award.
Cliff Lee stole the headlines when he shocked everyone by signing a $120 million, five year contract with the Phillies instead of taking more money from the New York Yankees.
Cole Hamels has the most outgoing personality in the group, and the only World Series ring among the four top starters.
Oswalt doesn’t care about the spotlight. In fact, he’s at his best when he shares it. The 33-year-old right-hander had consecutive 20-win seasons in 2004-05 with the Houston Astros when Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte were his teammates.
