Holliday faced Jake Peavy three times, Brandon Webb six times, Brad Penny five times - that's 14 games against the top three Cy Young votegetters. Colorado also faced Beckett.
The Phillies faced that group of pitchers a total of two times (Peavy once, Penny once).

I'm not a huge fan of this type of argument.
The combined line against of all the pitchers Holliday faced was 0.250/0.333/0.393, for Rollins it was .252/.337/.400, or basically why I don't like this argument- there isn't any meaningful difference.
