    For me, it's most often/always filtered, tap water, room temperature. Yep ... that's how I roll ... If I'm eating dinner or lunch while watching the game, a glass of milk. Or maybe an iced tea. Unless my dinner is a smoothie, then I’m drinking that On rare occasions I might splurge and make a milkshake of some sort ... or maybe even a root beer float! Yeah, no games special enough this year for that splurge ... plus, I don't usually keep pop around because I don't really like carbonated beverages, except for that noted exception.

    I can't love this comment, and most you make, enough. Thanks for being so reasonable with substance

    I get the frustration with pulling Ober, but as was pointed out to me in another conversation, Ober hasn't pitched more than 80 innings in a season, well, ever ... and missed all of last season ... so I get being cautious with him, too. Yeah, I would have liked to see him go one more inning, and really think they could have given him just one more, but I just can't be overly upset with it, either. That said, I'm not sure how the pen was mismanaged last night? I mean ... they gave up zero runs. Maybe that's luck, given the pen blowups this season, but for them to give us 5 innings without giving up a run ... I can't really call that mismanaged.

    Pineda maybe, probably ... but I don't think there was any market for Simmons; and I think with Donaldson, people were likely looking for the Twins to take on too much of the salary for not enough return. There are reasons to pull the trigger and reasons not. But with Simmons, I don't think there was anything on the table, at all for him, so no trigger to pull or not.

    When we signed Lynn, I was happy about it ... I thought he would be the pitcher he turned out to be. But then he ended up being such an ass.

    I think they win the deadline because of the returns they got for who they traded. IMO, they made the correct decisions. I'm not upset they didn't trade who they didn't as there seemed to be plausible explanations for that ... no trade market for Simmons or Donaldson (although I'd rather keep Donaldson, at least for now, so that was a good non-trade for me). And they didn't trade Buxton. Not sure what I think of not trading Pineda but I'm more so-so on that now than I was initially. So, I think they won the deadline. Did they win the trades? That is too soon to tell.
