The Astros have signed 30-year old righty reliever/starter Edgar Gonzalez and he will be the long man in the pen initially for them. Gonzalez pitched in 3 games (0 starts) this year for the Blue Jays and he was 0-0 with a 7.88 ERA and a 1.75 WHIP. Gonzalez pitched in 6 games (all starts) for the Astros last year and he was 3-1 with a 5.04 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP. Gonzalez has now pitched in 116 games (47 starts) in his first 10 years in the majors and he is 17-26 with a 5.88 ERA and a 1.55 WHIP. Don’t expect miracles out of Gonzalez.
