if you don't think we make a move for at least 1 new starting pitcher by trading deadline next season I can't help you.

Twitter chat with Mike Elias regarding the draft
quote:
Q1 In the past years we have seen a shift towards College plays. Any reason for the shift? 4 HS players in 14'
Q1: No shift; 3 big HS signees in '12, several more last year, 2014 a little misleading bc we took 9 JC players too
quote:
Q2: RT @astroslogy: Who are some later round selections that could have impact in HOU (besides West & Westwood)?
Q2: Tylers White and Brunnemann off to great starts in QC. From '14 class look for JC guys. 17th rnd Smith top 10 talent
quote:
Q3: RT @_DJ_DC_: @MEliasBaseball #AstrosDraftChat Where did Fisher and Reed rank on your top 50 going into the draft?
Q3: We had both Fisher and Reed in the 1st round on our board!! #AstrosDraftChat

Q4: RT @astroslogy: @MEliasBaseball Who has the highest ceiling that the #Astros drafted in this year's draft? #AstrosDraftChat
Q4: Mr. Brady Aiken. Maybe highest ceiling in entire '14 draft ... young but ace potential down road #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q5: RT @everdayadvisor: Aiken is first prep pitcher selected #1 overall in almost two decades. What makes him special? #AstrosDraftChat
Q5: Rare blend of polish, command, & now stuff from 17 yo prep lefty. But most of all poise and work ethic! #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q6: RT @willyum_jones: @astros #AstrosDraftChat who from this years draft class do you see getting to the big leagues the soonest?
Q6: Fisher, Reed & Davis all accomplished college bats- could move quick. But tough to bet against Aiken being far behind. #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q7: RT @TeeLSea1995: @astros @MEliasBaseball What will be the plan for A.J. Reed? #AstrosDraftChat
Q7: AJ will be starting 1B for @ValleyCats in NYPL. #VamosGatos #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q8: RT @Nathan_3535: @astros How long before the draft was the decision to take Aiken made? #AstrosDraftChat
Q8: Aiken was at top of our board all yr long, but decision never gets made until we all wake up on day of draft! #AstrosDraftChat

Q9: RT @blockedbydp14: How do you make such quick decisions in draft during later rounds when everything speeds up? @astros #AstrosDraftChat
Q9: We can move quick on day 3 cuz of thorough prep before draft. Also Sig has system to keep us organized! #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q10: RT @MrSlimShady21: How do you feel that Derek Fisher is now coaching the Knicks instead of playing baseball? #AstrosDraftChat
Q10: We're confident we can coordinate Derek Fisher's sched with the Knicks. Smart UVA kid, brain capacity for two sports! #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q11: RT @MoMolina14: @astros #AstrosDraftChat any shot of us signing Mac Marshall still?
Q11: Mac is a huge talent; we try to sign all our picks but those with strong college commits can be tougher than others. #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q12: RT @webberoo11: @Astros #AstrosDraftChat you told Tags that Derek Fisher has possibly 70 speed. Who does his speed remind you of?
Q12: Fisher can run. 3.95-4.00 down line at times. Comps? Maybe sim profile to Damon type #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q13: RT @nathan0223: @astros #AstrosDraftChat was there ever any pressure to take a more MLB ready pitcher like Nola or Rodon?
Q13: Proximity to MLB always discussed but in end want to always shoot for best long term investment at 1-1. #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q14: RT @Cameron_W11: @astros who do you think is steal of draft? Or a diamond in rough that we selected in later rounds? #AstrosDraftChat
Q14: Mengden & Smith were great values in that spot; fell some due to in-season injury; no long-term concerns. #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q15 RT @AstrosFuture: @astros do you feel Brady Aiken is the most polished high school pitcher you have ever scouted? #AstrosDraftChat
Q15: Been scouting 8 drafts and haven't seen everyone, but yes Aiken is most polished prep P I have personally scouted. #AstrosDraftChat

Q16: RT @blockedbydp14: How does the new CBA really impact the way you draft and scout college seniors? @astros #AstrosDraftChat
Q16: Teams have used col SRs to free up pool space but we try to focus on taking best player on board every pick. #AstrosDraftChat

Q17: RT @wtfbaseball: @astros where did Johnny Football rank on our draft board? Is Bo Porter against such a mobile QB? #AstrosDraftChat
Q17: Our area scout didn't even have Manziel turned in!! We missed that one. Can you believe it? #AstrosDraftChat
quote:
Q18: RT @MDavidColeman: #AstrosDraftChat Has technology made it easier to get a handle on the draft now than when you started scouting?
Q18: So much info online these days has sped up our scheduling and communication. Scouts equipped w/ new tools yearly too. #AstrosDraftChat

Q19: RT @Red_DMartin: @astros #AstrosDraftChat How do you guys view Jacob Nix?

Q20: RT @SickAFBrandon: #AstrosDraftChat How do you feel about talent Houston acquired in this draft overall compared to the last 2 drafts?

Trade him!

Agreed. Who wants to be a Wild Card team? It's freakin' October, and everyone is watching football by then anyway...

Nobody ever suggest we trade fowler this season. But it makes a nice little strawman
