two words: Carlos Silva
If you ignore every single peripheral stat, you know silly little predictive things like K/9, then there's some minor comparison between the two. Otherwise you've got a pitch to contact RHP who benefited from a good defense in Minnesota compared to a power K LHP who put up very good stats in a horrible pitching park in Colorado. But, other than being completely different types of pitchers coming from completely different situations, they're exactly the same.
