Andrew Oliver
7 starts in.... 38.2IP/41H/24ER/14BB(3.26BB/9)/50K(11.64K/9) - 5.59ERA / 1.42WHIP
Getting hit harder than I would like to see and would like to see better command but the strike out numbers are there.

Alex White
6 starts in....37.2IP/39H/18ER/13BB(3.11BB/9)/45K(10.75K/9) - 4.30ERA / 1.38WHIP
Same comments as Oliver...

Kyle Gibson
6 starts in....41IP/32H/12ER/9BB(1.98BB/9)/57K(12.51K/9) - 2.63ERA / 1.00WHIP
Looking very good thus far...great command and great strike out totals

Mike Minor
6 starts in....38.2IP/37H/14ER/12BB(2.79BB/9)/34K(7.91K/9) - 3.26ERA / 1.27WHIP
Just OK so far...ok command...ok strike out totals...not impressive but not disappointing

Kendal Volz
6 starts in....39IP/33H/13ER/16BB(3.69BB/9)/32K(7.38K/9) - 3.00ERA / 1.26WHIP
Not impressive thus far...needs beeter command and could use better strike out totals.

Ben Tootle
6 starts in....32.2IP/20H/8ER/20BB(5.51BB/9)/41K(11.29K/9) - 2.20ERA / 1.22WHIP
Has very solid stuff but he walks too many guys at this point.

Alex Wison, SP, Texas A&M

[PlayingWithFire]

I'm looking forward to 4/17, Mizzou here at K-State. Friday nighter, which probably means aces pitching.

Kyle Gibson 4-2 41ip 32h 57k 9bb 2.63ERA

vs.

AJ Morris 7-0 46.1ip 27h 49k 15bb 0.39ERA

Morris is no where the prospect that Gibson is, but he's surprisingly solid this year and can probably go in the top 5 somewhere. If not higher.
