There as different as hitters can be, but they're roughly the same value.

Same value at the plate?

I'm factoring in stolen bases. 44/46 on SBs really makes up a lot of ground. Throw in park factors and you've got similar-value hitters.

Not to be a nit, but if were measuring who is a better hitter isn't speed irrelevant?

Baserunning is definitely a part of offensive value.
