He has to get some movement on his fastball if he is going to be elite.

Probably more like Martes, Tucker, Paulino/Perez and one more. It'll hurt.

He is kinda a dick. But if I had a bunch of people in my mentions asking dumb arse questions or saying "trade Fiers, McHugh and Gattis and sign Edwin and move White to backup catcher" (legit tweet), then I would get annoyed as shite.

Astros Baw is cornier on Twitter than he is on this board. Just awful.

No I totally get that. The majority of casual fans are morons. At the same time, there isn't a sports writer in America that doesn't have idiotic followers hounding them with stupid questions. Most just choose to ignore it but Tags goes out of his way to be an arse.

It's not that big of a deal, I just get annoyed when people are assholes just for the hell of it.

... and no, before anyone asks, I have never interacted with Tags on twitter.

I'm very aware of who he is on Twitter. Funny thing is... He follows me on Twitter.

I give Ryno a hard time, but it's because he wants that attention. If everyone started to agree with him, he'd change his opinion- that's kind of his deal.

He's a true Astros fan at heart.

How much playing time do you guys think Marwin Gonzalez will get for us next year? He'll obviously be a bench player, but do you guys think with all the decent bats we signed, he'll play less than he used to for us?

Way less unless injury . He said last offseason that he feels like he should be an everyday guy, so I don't think he will handle a bench role well

Depends on injuries. He's great to have around.

I don't do anything on Twitter but read. I don't follow him. He just has an open account. I read Twitter maybe once or twice a week, if that.

I was thinking about where Marwin fit on this team this year as well. If Reed doesn't step it up, Marwin may be in for quite a few ABs and playing 1B again

I don't love that, but I don't hate it. I've always liked Marwin. Never really seemed to put the team in a bad situation.

I really like Marwin as a pinch hitter.

I'm always confident in his first at bat. He jumps on the first good pitch he gets. Defense is questionable but I'll take his bat coming off the bench anyday

Looks like Gomez signing a 1 yr deal with Texas
