📣 DAD’S TAKEON NOLAN MCLEAN

Five cards from 2026 products and McLean already has three different card numbers to track. The Sapphire Edition and regular Chrome both use number 236, so at least Topps showed some consistency there, but then Finest goes rogue with number 62 and insert designations A-7 and YI-6. You need a spreadsheet just to organize this guy's base cards. The Youth Impact insert is particularly amusing for a 24-year-old who pitched in the World Baseball Classic final.

ABOUT NOLAN MCLEAN

Nolan McLean was drafted in the third round (91st overall) by the New York Mets in 2023 and made his MLB debut on August 16, 2025. McLean starred in baseball and football in high school outside Raleigh, North Carolina, and briefly played both sports at Oklahoma State before dropping football, continuing as a two-way player for the Cowboys, playing third base and then right field while notching 11 career saves as a reliever. The Orioles drafted McLean in the third round in 2022 as an eligible sophomore but did not sign him. His 57 strikeouts were the third-most in franchise history through a player's first eight career starts, and he posted a 2.06 ERA with a 5-1 record. McLean started for Team USA in the 2026 World Baseball Classic, including the tournament final against Team Venezuela on March 17th, pitching to a no-decision in a 3-2 loss.

The collection features five 2026 cards from Topps Chrome, Topps Chrome Sapphire Edition, and Finest, including inserts from the Arrivals and Youth Impact sets. These cards capture McLean's emergence as a Mets rotation fixture during his official rookie campaign.
