Since it's not fair to just look at the 1.34 better vs 2.44 better, expressing their ERA as a pct of the league ERA you have:

Sandy: 0.592
Pedro: 0.474

I know DY would at this time point out that Sandy had less to work with given the lower league ERA, but I'm just tossing out the percentages as another reference.
