I have been incredibly lazy about trying to find 2018 cards of Cutch in Giants uniform.
Gold Label was released a few months ago, but so far I have only gotten 3 cards.
Gold Label has loads of parallels.
Each card has three different "Classes" which are stated on the front of the card.
For each class there are also a handful of color parallels: base, black, blue, red, and gold. These all vary in terms of production numbers, but the gold are all numbered 1/1.
So far all I have is Class 1 base and red to go with Class 2 base.
If anyone comes across any of the other class cards I need, send them my way.

Forgot about these...oops
A few days ago I showed off the red parallels I added to my collection. In my haste to get that post ready for the first Friday in February's National Red Day, I forgot to show off two more reds I had acquired.
The first is a 2017 Bowman Best red refractor numbered to 10 copies.
You will see more parallels of this in the future. It's a lovely looking rainbow, but they got something wrong on the back.
While Cutch did have a good game on July 30th 2017 by hitting 3 homers in a game for the third time, his best game came on September 26th when he went 4 for 4 with 8 RBI, 2 homeruns, a single, double, and a standing ovation from the Pittsburgh crowd. I guess releasing cards shortly after season's end didn't allow for that game to be mentioned on the back.
Another red card I added was the Gold Label class 3 numbered to 25.
I showed off the other two classes (1 & 2) on the red post.
The backs for all three classes are the same

Showing Some Class
Last year I waited until I had all the parallels before I showed off my Andrew McCutchen Gold Label rainbow (minus the 1/1 golds).
This year I am struggling to complete the rainbows and need your help.
Topps added a 5th parallel to chase this year (base, blue, black, red, and gold).
Here's what I have so far.
Here is the back of this year's Gold Label
Here's what I need.
Class 2 Black
Class 3 Red xx/25
All Classes Gold 1/1

Cross off another from the list
I had already stopped collecting when the original Gold Label cards came out in the early 2000s. That's probably a gold thing though because I would have probably over paid for Jason Kendall and Jason Schmidt cards from that time.
When the 2016 Gold Label checklist was released I saw that Cutch was listed which meant I would have to add and track down 9-12 cards if I was lucky to find the Gold 1/1s.
Well after a few months I have completed all 3 classes for the base, blue, and red.
The base and reds were easy to track down even though the reds are supposed to be the rarest (golds excluded).
The hardest one for me to find?
Class 3 Blue.
Why? I don't know. Since release only a few have hit the market, but nearly a dozen of the Class 3 Reds (/25) have shown up for sale. Weird, right?
The back of the card talks about Cutch's 3 consective 20/20 seasons from 2011 to 2013. He was on track in 2014 too, but suffered an injury in retaliation for Ernesto Frieri ending Paul Goldschmidt's season. The injury landed Cutch out of the lineup for nearly 2 weeks and limited his base stealing during the final month of the season. He would finish two bases shy.
