Youk is way way better than Millar was. Way better.

No way Drew is that much better than Trot was, if at all. He SUCKED until the end of the season.

2004 Millar was probably about as good as 2007 Youkilis. Youkilis cost about a ninth of the money though, and who knows about defense either way.

.297/.383/.474 vs .288/.390/.453

Millar also played about half his games at RF that year, which I completely forgot about.

It's Derek Lowe you should compare with Dice-K, not Arroyo. And while I think it's a wash for regular season, Lowe had the better postseason '04 than Dice-K's '07.

Nixon was hurt for about half of 2004, so I would put RF as a wash.

I lol'ed at this. Last night they were interviewing a cute 20 something female fan and asked her what she thought about Paplebom. "Oh, he's great because he's so good in the clinch."

It's mainly because rarely do players in baseball play through injuries compared to football or even basketball.
