In the real life sense I kind of agree with Baker. I'd take Halladay+Lee over Maddux+Glavine.
The strike zone has only recently started getting more accurate due to umpires being double-cheked by computerized systems in the past several years. While there is some favoritism, its scaled back quite a bit from a decade ago.
In the 90s, veteran favoritism was off the walls IMO. I'm not sure if Maddux's command was better than either Halladay or Lee now. 
I think prime-Madduz/Halladay/Lee are all around the same level and prime-Glavine is not really close to that.
Maddux/Glavine are greater in the historical sense, but throw those aces in an '11 rotation and I'm taking Halladay-Lee.
