The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Phillies pitcher Roy Halladay has been dealing with a genetic diet-related illness. After failing to extend himself beyond three batters in Monday's outing against the Marlins, which turned out to be his final start of the 2013 season, Halladay cited the illness as contributing to the weakness that left him struggling to throw his fastball and cutter in the mid-80s.
Halladay said he felt no pain in his surgically-repaired shoulder, but because of the fatigue he has experienced, his surgeon, Neal ElAttrache, recommended at least three weeks of rest.
