Kershaw compares to his contemporaries much better than Koufax does to his.
Koufax was dominant and put up great numbers in an era when pitchers put up much better numbers than they do today.
Kershaw put up similar numbers to Koufax in an era where pitchers put up far inferior numbers.
And I'm a MASSIVE Koufax fan.
