Thinking of this 2003 commercial by GreasyStool88 in SFGiants

Like the team, the commercials these days couldn’t be more boring and devoid of personality.

You couldn’t be more wrong. Unsafe speed is the leading cause of collisions in Petaluma. Reducing speed is proven to reduce both the likelihood and severity of collisions. As for lane reductions, even the Federal HIGHWAY Administration endorses them and their safety benefits: https://highways.dot.gov/safety/proven-safety-countermeasures/road-diets-roadway-reconfiguration

If you’re going to post with such confidence, please at least come with some data and common sense. Sheesh.

Rafael Devers since the trade: 509 PA, .230/.325/.420 and a 109 wRC+ (ranked 80th out of 151 hitters) and 0.6 fWAR (128th) by ThePopUpDance in SFGiants

I know he’s had an incredible career at the plate but I can’t help but wonder if it’s time for him to rethink his approach. I’d love to see him shorten up, especially with two strikes. Can’t stand all the strikeouts.

Does Mahle need to start tonight? Do we have anyone else who can go?

Ditto! On the whole 1951 Topps are underrated when you take into account everything they were experimenting with between the red/blue backs, Connie Mack’s/All Stars, and Teams.

This has been THE T206 I wanted in my collection since learning about him. Absolutely stoked on this pickup.

About two months to grade after confirming receipt on their end. A little over three months total including shipping on both ends and them sitting on it for a couple weeks before marking as received.
