Even though Halladay is obviously one of the best the Yankees don't really need him. I mean they won the WS with a rotation of CC, AJ, Andy, Joba and a bunch of guys with ERAs around 8 (Wang, Mitre). I'm fine with the Yankees having a rotation of CC-AJ-Andy-Joba-Hughes next year. Joba has a year under his belt of starting and will have no Joba rules next year. The whole innings restriction is when he started going downhill this year.
And if they really want they can go after a guy like Lee or Halladay in FA the next year. The whole Halladay situation reminds me of the Santana thing. There won't be that many teams that will be able to trade a huge amount of prospects and sign him to a 20M+/year contract.
