Omaha
Omaha players are hard to find, so I guess it doesn't surprise me that there could be quite a few more out there.
Hypotheticals:
Ed Gastfield is available as a Cabinet, as is Frank Selee, the manager.
John Campana was released on April 10, so maybe too soon to be on a card.
Ed Cassian was with Omaha until July 2 without ever appearing in a regular season game. He pitched in spring training. But he's not on the cabinet list, so not sure why he doesn't seem to have had a card.
Len Sowders, brother of John Sowders (St. Paul) and Bill Sowders (Boston). Not sure when he signed with Omaha, but he was gone by early June.
Sanders is listed on the Cabinet checklist, but I think this is an error. I wonder if they meant Sowders?
