In case I failed to mention it: I'm on twitter now. It's @ryanlawrence21

I mention that because I've already been feeding stuff from the Roy Halladay press conference to twitter. But here are a few more nuggets before I head up to the press box and work on the story (ah yes, even in the modern news age, the story trumps all).

- Roy Halladay first checked in at Bright House Field back in December... shortly after the trade. He wins the prize for first player in camp.

- His training routine has been a popular topic among teammates. So when does it begin each day? Halladay wakes up at 4:45 a.m. and reports to the park at 5:45. "Some young kids have been chasing me in, trying to beat me... I might move it back to 5:30."

- Halladay on Philly's rep for booing: "I'm going to try to keep the boos to a minimum. I think it's too good of a team to disappoint the fans." He also said former Phillie/Blue Jay and current Philly fan boo-bird favorite Scott Rolen told him he'd like Philly: "I'm sure it was hard for him to say."

- Halladay (whose nickname, if you didn't know, is "Doc"), said something that can't be possible: his favorite moment in Philly so far was a 76ers game.. it was the applause he received, not the hoops of course.

"Ryan Howard was there, and after the announced him (over the P.A. system), they announced me," Halladay said.

And who got the bigger applause?

"I don't know - probably Ryan still," Halladay said, grinning.


- on Johan Santana's comment the other day (Santana said he was the best pitcher in the NL East): "I like to use the old Lou Holtz quote: Well done is more important than well said."
