Still, Cy-caliber aces are a lot harder to come by than journeyman utility guys who the chicks dig. Did you see what the Yanks are paying Sabathia?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Lilly was better than Peavy. Look at the parks they're pitching at. Could you imagine how good Lilly would be if all those homers he gave up stayed in the park at Petco? That's the advantage Peavy gets.
On the road in 08
Lilly- 10-4, 3.77 ERA, .243 BAA
Peavy- 5-6, 4.28 ERA, .258 BAA
Lilly is not the better pitcher, but he was this year.
