Doc Punched His Hall Ticket

Roy Halladay's no-hitter in Game 1 of the playoffs against the Reds pretty much sealed a future induction to the Hall of Fame for Halladay.
Sure, he's 33-years old and has a career record of 169-86, which is impressive but not yet Hall worthy. He's had threes seasons of 20 or more wins and also tossed a perfect game, this season against the Marlins.
While he labored in relative obscurity in Toronto, now that he's with the Phillies and in the post-season, he can showcase his talent.
Providing he stays healthy, and there is no reason to think he won't have several more prime years, he should be a shoe-in for the Hall of Fame.
Here's one for you. Who is the best pitcher ever from the state of Colorado?
Here are your candidates: Doc Halladay and Goose Gossage.
I'll go with Gossage for now since he is in the Hall of Fame. If you ask me this question in five years I might have a different answer.
