Not in terms.of raw numbers as you are doing. But in terms of Youngs performance versus a league average pitcher of his time and Martinez performance versus a league average pitcher of his time, absolutely.
How much better than an average pitcher of his day was each one? That is quantifiable and thus each can be compared based on that.
