We have an uptake? Is it solar powered?

Online webster:

 

"Definition of uptake

1: the act or action of grasping with the mind : UNDERSTANDING, COMPREHENSION —usually used in the phrases quick on the uptake and slow on the uptake"

 

And no, i don't have an uptake. This i sthe problem...

[AceWrigley]

oh Sano ... 

He is engaged in the action at least. And he did make closer than one might expect.

[Squirrel]

wooooo ... okay  ...

Larnach had time for one more 360

[mikelink45]

Boomstick night!  They just talked about all the editing that was needed on the radio.  Great timing.  I believe the boomstick was intercepted by an alien ray or rays?

Pineda has exceeded my expectations for the third year in a row.

(He met my expectations in 2018, when he was out for the year and didn’t throw a pitch lol)

Could he have landed it though?

 

A double axel is harder than it looks...

I have decided to leave now.  We are ahead 2 - 0.  I will count it as a win and hope no one ruins my delusional celebration.

That is why i cultivate low expectations....

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

To answer the question posed in the o.p...

i liked the signing, I like how he plays (except for the weird errors) but his style just didn’t mesh with the team this year. Also didn’t help that we fell out of the race so quickly.

And Cabrera... Sigh. When it rains, it pours...

It is nice to have a margin for air.

[MMMordabito]

Good luck, Big Mike, if that was your last start for the Twins.

That's right!

Ihope that increased our leverage... "Can't trade him away before the bobblehead night" "how 'bout we add another pitcher?"

Zero chance he's that good, but that's true of nearly every hitter.....
