Soroka, 19, has a 3.45 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 31:7 K:BB in 31.1 innings with Double-A Mississippi.
He is the second youngest pitcher in the Southern League behind teammate Kolby Allard and skipped High-A altogether, so this is a very impressive start to the season for the 6-foot-5 righty. His walk rate is almost identical to what he posted at Low-A, and his strikeout rate is up from 21.4 percent to 23.9 percent against significantly tougher competition.
