Well, it's not weird now that you know the context. They're both fantastic pitchers and former Cy Young winners. But back in 2000, the two were teammates on the same Blue Jays team. Wow! Must have been quite a rotation!
Chris Carpenter And Roy Halladay: A Weird Match-Up

| Roy Halladay | 23 | 4 | 7 | 10.64 | 67.2 | 107 | 14 | 42 | 44 |
It was quite a rotation. Just not quite how the Blue Jays were hoping. And the Jays finished above .500, believe it or not, despite almost 250 innings of the worst starting pitching imaginable. And who would have thought that 12 seasons later, these two would have faced off in a playoff elimination game?
This is all a long-winded way of writing that I'm going to really enjoy the Kyle Drabek/Jo-Jo Reyes match-up in the 2022 playoffs.
