Andy, I know you hate the early deadball guys but to leave them off entirely...

Freudian slip?

And for the record I don't hate them all, just Pre-1894

Ferdie Schupp 1916
George Bradley 1880
Russ Ford 1910 -
Eddie Cicotte 1917
Jesse Tannehill 1902
Eddie Plank 1915
Bill Joyce 1894
Ed Delahanty 1895 / 1899
Jack Clements 1895
Dan Brouthers 1886
Jesse Burkett 1896
John McGraw 1899
Fred Clarke 1897
Cy Seymour 1905
Elmer Flick 1900
Cap Anson 1884
George Davis 1897
Gavvy Cravath 1913
Bill Lange 1895
Sherry McGee 1910
Jimmy Sheckard 1900
Silent Mike Tiernan 1896
Tight Pants Titus 1905
Bobby Veach 1919
Kip Selbach 1900
Ed Roush 1917

Ok, ok, here a few I gleaned from Bill's list:

Ernie Shore 1915
Ed Delahanty 1899
Heinie Wagner 1910
Jake Daubert 1913
Vic Saier 1913
Heinie Zimmerman 1912
Eddie Cicotte 1917
Jim Scott 1913
Noodles Hahn 1902
Frank Lange 1911
Cy Morgan 1910
Amos Strunk 1915
Rube Oldring 1910
Larry Doyle 1915
Mike Tiernan 1896
Chick Gandil 1912
Bucky Harris 1920

1876 Al Spalding should be in the set...HOF pioneer and a dominant pitcher from the early years...

I'd like to see the Silver King 1888 card. He played 10 years, has no card, "pitched" 584 innings that year with a .874 whip.

We've already crossed the Rubicon with Clarkson (623 innings), Coleman (538 innings) Corcoran (536).

He can play for a few reverse franchises - Reds, Pirates, Giants, Cardinals

Crossing the Rubicon ultimately got Caesar killed though.

A deadballer to consider:

1/ Hardy Richardson. 1887 season. One of the better second-basemen in the early deadball era. The 1887 season is not the monster 1886 season that might frighten away those allergic to pre-1894 players. 131 ops+ (his career average as well), 18 triples, 29 sbs. By JAWS standards, the 43rd best 2B of all-time.

Pink Hawley,1895

John McGraw 1899
