TTM Success - Shane Opitz

This 2011 Panini Playoff Contenders card that I got signed TTM by Shane Opitz looks a lot better in person.  The card has qualities of an atomic refractor, but the scan didn't really pick that up.  It looks great in person, though.

Opitz (b. 1992) was an 11th round pick by the Blue Jays in the 2009 June Amateur Draft out of Heritage High School in Colorado.  He played in the minors from 2010 to 2018 in the Blue Jays and Brewers systems, reaching AAA.

He had 491 hits, 12 home runs and a .254 batting average.  I mailed to Opitz on January 25 and got the card back on March 10, for a 44-day TAT.
