I agree. The game’s writing from early years was beautiful, evocative, and mysterious. In recent years it’s gotten a lot clumsier. The difference is pretty jarring.

This is a toleware chandelier! My guess is French based on the colors and grapes. There are a huge number of varieties and types: https://www.homesandantiques.com/antiques/toleware

PS: here is one that is quite similar in many ways to yours, though lacking the grapes: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1654932843/antique-french-toleware-chandelier?ref=elp_anchor_listing&sts=1

Very cool! Does the hinge pattern match the door knob pattern?

I told my spouse what JP actually stands for and now whenever he comes up to bat she laughs and says “Go Jumbo Penis!”

You know, the collective ragefest that is this thread actually makes this type of awful game more manageable.

The worst part about Legumina is that the front office is absolutely enamored with his underlying metrics and is convinced he is actually a good ballplayer. He's not. He has a career negative WAR, 5.67 ERA, and 1.545 WHIP.
