This is just a crude group of stats that I’ve put together to look at the Garza trade. I’m basing this on AL East to NL Central move from Ted Lilly and applying it to Garza. I know this won’t accurate, but it helps me believe the Garza trade will turn out alright.
Ted Lilly from ‘04-’06

This part is where I take the AVGs of both players and compare stats prior to the move to the NL. The last line is to show the percentage of Garza over Lilly.

Using basic math I now use Garza/Lilly to project against Lilly’s Cubs/Dodgers stats to find what Garza would be based on this. This is what I come up with to what Garza could be on the Cubs. Also, remember that Garza will be 27 on opening day entering his prime whereas Lilly was 31 on opening day in '07.

Now keep in mind, this is very crude on my behalf just using percentages and what not. If anybody can do a much better job, please do so. Please go easy on me!! :)
