Brian Fisher vs. Bob Macdonald — Career Comparison

Brian Fisher built a career as a starting pitcher and Bob Macdonald as a reliever — different jobs with different demands — but on the metrics that apply to both, a comparison is still worth making. Bob Macdonald led in run prevention (ERA+ 101 vs 84), home run suppression (HR9+ 90 vs 78), and walk avoidance (BB%+ 100 vs 90). Role difference aside, Bob Macdonald holds a clear edge on every meaningful shared measure.
