There were two trades that were just AWEFUL on Dipoto's list...and the rest were pretty good. That's a fairly decent batting average IMHO - if you don't deal Miller for Karns the head-case...you don't have to deal Walker for Segura...or if you do that deal anyway, Miller becomes a nice corner outfielder. And if we'd not thrown Trumbo away after it was plainly obvious that he was fixed to anyone paying attention...we could have kept Montgomery...who would have been MIGHTY useful down the stretch...but whatever. :\
On the whole, I think the trades have brought in more than they've wasted. So...good.
As for Twitter - their advertising revenue is disappearing in part because of fake accounts and in part because they're run by authoritarian thugs who censor free speech and make the environmnent hostile to half of the American users.
