Evan Gattis will be really good in 2016

Every off-season I try to make at least one "hawt take" -- my feeble attempt to fit in better with national sports media. In 2013, I boldly proclaimed that Dallas Keuchel would be the Astros' best pitcher in 2014. Win for me. In 2014, I dared suggest that Brett Oberholtzer would have a breakout season in 2015. Obie got injured, tried to bean Alex Rodriguez, and then got demoted. If all that hadn't happened, I'd be two-for-two, and you can't prove differently.

My Hawt Take of the 2015-16 offseason is this:

Evan Gattis will be really good in 2016.
