Gorzelanny versus Eveland

I think Tom Gorzelanny and Dana Eveland are two of the most underhyped pitching prospects in the game today. Trouble is, I can't decide who I like more and I want to take one of them in my upcoming NL draft (most of the other top pitching prospects are already on teams, though the 2005 draft class is available). Their stats are similar, but Eveland is a year younger and Gorzelanny is more athletic.

The two questions I have: Who's the better prospect and do you agree that these are elite pitching prospects?

Comparison
Awfully hard to find a marked difference between the two pitchers. Baseball Prospectus in its 2005 forecast gave some estimates although these are admittedly don't include the 2005 season and I don't know how much of a factor that would be. But there wasn't much to choose between them.

Eveland may have a bit more upside in that he's pitching for a somewhat stronger team. Both pitchers seem to project as #3 or #4 starters at best. Sorry I can't be of more help.
