I realize Pavano is righty. A lefty prime-Pavano would put up better numbers. I couldn't find an exact comp for a pure lefty. If Pavano threw with his left hand, he'd be the closest.
 
Both throw four-seams and sinkers that average around 90-91mph. Both have plus changes (although not Santana/Hamels/Lincecum class), both throw sliders. Both are above-average command types that would rather thow give up a hit than a BB.
 
I know Hultzen also has a curve, but haven't heard high reviews on it.. The Vid was pretty much four-seam, sinker, and changeup.
