(Brian Michael/Phillies Nation)[/caption] Roy Halladay was one of four elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame on Jan. 22. While he only had four seasons in a Phillies uniform, he certainly left his mark ... a Cy Young Award, a perfect game, and baseball's second postseason no-hitter. He and catcher Carlos Ruiz had a special bond. It was only fitting that Halladay became a Hall of Famer on Ruiz's 40th birthday. Retirements Last season saw four 2008 World Champion Phillies announce their retirements: Jayson Werth, Chase Utley, Shane Victorino and Ryan Howard. Three are still active: pitchers Cole Hamels, J.A. Happ and Ryan Madson. Victorino kicked off the annual Toyota Alumni Weekend by ceremoniously retiring as a Phillie prior to the Friday night game. He joined Doug Glanville (2005), Mike Lieberthal (2008), Pat Burrell (2012) and "Polly" -- Placido Polanco (2016) -- in similar pregame ceremonies. That number will increase by three in 2019: Jimmy Rollins will ceremoniously retire as a Phillie on May 4, Chase Utley on June 21 and Ryan Howard on July 14.
