My eyes and the numbers suggest that French has better stuff than either.
 About 1-2% points better SwS% than Vargas in AAA+MLB and WAY better than Olson. French's SwS% was 2 times higher than Olson in AAA. His SwS% in the MLB is also double. Statistically hes similar to Vargas except with slightly better stuff, command, and no gopheritis.
FYI French had an 11.5 SwS% in AAA to Fister's 6.2%, and Fister had a 67.6 Strike% vs French's 65.6% which backs my opinion that French has better stuff but slightly less command than Fister. 
Fister followed up French's strong start with a strong start of his own today. I didn't see it, but statistically he did it with less dominance than French, more strikes, more GBs, and gave up a HR.
Honestly, I'm really starting to get tired of comparing the two. Both of these guys have been encouraging lately as potential starters beyond '09, why can't we get excited about both?
