He hasn’t played in any game-situation scenarios, and being ready for Opening Day continues to trend toward a pipe dream by the day.

This week the Star Tribune’s Phil Miller reported that Derek Falvey has acknowledged time is running out for Polanco. Polanco had a compression sleeve on his left knee and a noticeable limp as he walked back to Hammond Stadium. Kepler was watching his friends during a scheduled off day. On Thursday, as Carlos Correa, Buxton, and Kirilloff were in action against Atlanta Braves minor leaguers, Polanco and teammate Max Kepler were in street clothes behind home plate. Buxton has hit consistently, and he looks to be all systems go. Although it was Kirilloff initially noted to be behind schedule, he has now played multiple games on the back fields getting live at-bats and action in the field.

We continued to closely monitor the situation until we had full confidence the issue was resolved and no further impact would reoccur. By 9:14 AM PST, everyone should have been able to connect to Slack again after reloading their app or browser tab.

This allowed the system to recover while steadily restoring full access to all users. With traffic distributed across the additional databases, we gradually lifted the rate limits to allow more people to connect to Slack. We reinstated the rate limits and redirected some traffic to the database replicas to relieve the demand on our primary databases. However, we moved too quickly and the increased activity affected the system again. Once the system had stabilized, we began lifting these rate limits to enable more connections to Slack. This meant that some people could not access Slack at all, but also that Slack would continue working for those who were already connected. We introduced tighter rate limits on connection requests to reduce the load on the system. Due to this increased activity, the affected databases failed to serve incoming requests to connect to Slack. On Februfrom 6:00 AM PST to 9:14 AM PST, customers may not have been able to access Slack.Ī configuration change inadvertently lead to a sudden increase in activity on our database infrastructure.
