Dave Baldwin vs. Bobby Jones — Career Comparison

Bobby Jones built a career as a starting pitcher and Dave Baldwin as a reliever — different jobs with different demands — but on the metrics that apply to both, a comparison is still worth making. Dave Baldwin led in run prevention (ERA+ 118 vs 78), home run suppression (HR9+ 131 vs 98), and walk avoidance (BB%+ 100 vs 70). Role difference aside, Dave Baldwin holds a clear edge on every meaningful shared measure.
