James Gillheeney and Chris Sorce. Both are battling it out in the California League, which makes their numbers so far just that much more impressive. Both have had 6 starts with High Desert, and they are 1 and 2 on the team with WHIP's of 1.13 (Gillheeney) and 1.16 (Sorce).
Gillheeney may prove to be the more impressive of the two in the long-run. So far in 30.0 IP he has struckout 38 while walking just 8. Amazingly, he has been much better at home than on the road (but the small sample size caveat probably applies). Gillheeney leans just a touch to the "groundballer" side of things.
Sorce doesn't strikeout near as many batters, but he is decidedly a groundball pitcher, and he tends to get deeper into games than Gillheeney.
I really like these two!
