Even the Speaker and Hooper cards are tough from the set, and therefore relatively expensive.
With a little help from Leon on a trade for Tinker, I will be down to the Ward Miller to complete my Cubs set. The Saier took me awhile, but it was more a matter of what I was willing to pay where as the Miller is a matter of finding one. There are a lot of Cubs set collectors needing him for their subsets.

The Cubs are fairly simple outside of the Saier and Miller so I agree that your Sox set is more challenging. I am just now reading the research done on this set and from what I have gathered, it is extremely tough.
