While he had a seemingly rough year, Nolan Reimold is still one of "my guys." I still scour Ebay and Instagram for Reimold cards that I don't yet have in my collection. Recently, I made a deal with a kid from Charlotte for this 2007 Bowman Heritage auto. I sent him some Paypal and he sent me this awesome on-card auto. For some reason, I didn't have this card in my collection, so I am glad I can finally add it. The auto looks great, I think. I'm left to wonder, though, when will Topps bring back Bowman Heritage? This was a really nice set and would work either as an insert set or an "every now and then" standalone set.
Here is a pink parallel from 2016 Topps Update. I picked this card up from COMC. It is numbered 31/50 and looks pretty cool. I need to pick up some more of his parallels from 2016. I just haven't had the time nor the funds to do so.
Finally, here is a really cool Reimold that I picked up in a trade with a kid named, Will, on Instagram. I sent Will two cards he selected off of Ebay to make up for this, but in the end, I still think it was a great deal. This is the red back short print from 2016 Heritage.
I don't know how short printed these were, but this is the only one I have seen. It is a really cool card, and it came in great shape. I was really glad that I saw it when I did, and be able to pick it up as easy as I did.
I'm really glad I was able to add all of these Nolans to my collection. I'm really holding out hope that the Orioles bring him back, but I think it is highly unlikely. If they don't bring him back, I'm still going to collect him and still going to cheer him on. He's a great guy with a great family. Here's hoping he gets a good deal for 2017.
