who was better lefthander Sandy Koufax or Tom Glavine?

Question: Tim Kurkjian said Tom Glavine is a better pitcher because of his longevity. I guess that makes Julio Franco a better hitter than Ted Williams.

Answer: I'd say Koufax off the top of my head! Stats! Koufax 165-87 win/loss 2396 k's 2.76 era (and oh ya 4 no hitters!) Glavine 300-197 w/L 2544k's 3.49era The only thing I see that edges Glavine is the longevity... Given modern medical technology Koufax would most likely have crushed Glavine in every measurable stat! Glavine has been very good for a long time but Koufax was rediculously good (dominant!) for a shorter time! I think people remember domination longer than longevity!
