Both players are still attempting to come back and become MLB quality starters.
Who are you rooting for to make it?
I Think Willis is with the Cubs on a minor league deal while Prior is I believe pitching independent league after being released by Boston. Both were electrifying at a young age and looked like they could be destined for HOF one day but each has had career derailed by various issues.

Brad Hawpe launched one off Prior in 2000 College World Series, he didn't like it too much

I'd love to see D Train get back to any resemblance of what he was with the Marlins

I don't know what the Cubs were thinking when they traded him.

Willis was good early on, but he was never destined for the HOF.

Prior. I love watching him pitch. I went to the Cubs-Rockies the day after he was with a line drive. It was sad to see him in a sling, but I was amped cause I was seeing Mark Prior in the flesh.

I still have my home Mark Prior jersey (and my Kerry Wood t-shirty jersey).
