Santo Alcala vs. David Lee — Career Comparison

Santo Alcala built a career as a starting pitcher and David Lee as a reliever — different jobs with different demands — but on the metrics that apply to both, a comparison is still worth making. David Lee led in home run suppression (HR9+ 122 vs 79), run prevention (ERA+ 117 vs 78), and skill-based run prevention (DICE+ 92 vs 86). Role difference aside, David Lee holds a clear edge on every meaningful shared measure.
