Without doing research on other teams I quickly compared the Yankees rotation to the Giants rotation and here's what I think:

Sabathia = Lincecum

Burnett = Randy Johnson - both injury prone but still dominant when healthy.

Cain >> Wang - if Cain were on the Yankees he would have a couple of 20 win seasons already because of run support.

Zito = Pettite

Sanchez = Chamberlain - Both young live arms with a ton of upside, but both inexperienced and unproven. Both started in bullpen as well and moved to a starting pitcher role last year.

So I would say the Giants rotation is equal if not slightly better with a brighter future. I'm sure there are other teams with better pitching.
